Automotive Technology
Welcome
MCC offers four Automotive Technology programs—three leading to an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) degree and one certificate option. Each program combines hands-on training with classroom learning to prepare you for a career as an automotive technician.
As vehicles become more advanced, the demand for highly skilled technicians continues to grow—creating strong career opportunities for graduates.
Most students complete their program in five to nine semesters while gaining real-world experience in the field. These programs are rigorous and require a strong commitment to both coursework and on-the-job training.
