Faculty that share your passion
Although Detroit earned the nickname “Motor City” because it’s a hub for automobile production, it also hints at another truth. Those of us who live in Michigan love to drive.
There are about 286 million vehicles registered in the U.S. and nearly 3 million of them are in our own Great Lakes State. That’s a lot of tires to rotate, diagnostics to run and transmissions to rebuild.
If you’ve always been happiest with your head under the hood of an automobile, the faculty in our Automotive Technology program know exactly how you feel.
With their practical experience and industry contacts, they can help you turn your passion for everything with a chassis and a drivetrain into a career as a much sought-after, highly skilled automotive service technician.
