AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY - CERTIFICATE PROGRAM

Description:
The Certificate in Automotive Technology is a one-year, fifty-week, thirty-credit program for students who do not wish to pursue a degree, but would prefer to enter the work force as soon as possible. Each specialized subject is dealt with in the classroom and the hands-on laboratory. Students need no prior automotive skills to begin the program. The student may start in any semester. The courses in this certificate program are the same credit bearing courses offered in the degree program and are applicable should the student decide at a later date to pursue the AAS degree in Automotive Technology at MCC. Monroe Community College is offering this program to students in the western region of New York State (Rochester, Syracuse and Buffalo).
