*A new college orientation requirement, completion of the one-credit ACDV 101 course, Transitioning to College, went into effect spring 2010. If you are a credit student who is new to college (meaning you have not successfully completed college coursework at another institution(s)), you are required to take ACDV 101 during your first semester at CCBC, thereby increasing the number of credits required for the degree to 70 credits. Students are required to provide an official transcript(s) to document successful completion of college coursework at another institution(s) in order for this requirement to be waived.

Program Outcomes:

Upon successful completion of this degree option, students will be able to:

  1. successfully complete ASE testing for Master Technician Certification;
  2. diagnose and repair engines and related systems;
  3. diagnose and repair transmissions and related systems;
  4. diagnose and repair brakes and related systems;
  5. diagnose and repair steering and suspension systems and their related systems;
  6. diagnose and repair HVAC systems and related systems; and
  7. diagnose and repair electrical and electronics and related systems.

Program Description:

These manufacturer-specific options, designed in cooperation with either General Motors and the Maryland General Motors Dealerships, Ford Motor Company and the Maryland Ford Motor Company Dealerships, or Toyota Motor Corporation and the Maryland Toyota Dealerships, lead to an Associate of Applied Science degree. They alternate college instruction with on-the-job dealership training. These two-year Cooperative Education (Co-op) programs are designed for individuals who have a career interest in the automotive service industry. Students must meet specific requirements of admission. An A.A.S. degree is awarded to students who have a GPA of 2.0 or higher and complete the listed course pattern. All automotive course requirements are either General Motors, Ford, or Toyota oriented. The General Motors ASEP option, the Ford ASSET option, and the Toyota Motors T-TEN option at CCBC Catonsville are nationally accredited by ASE/NATEF (Master).

The course sequence listed refers to the following manufacturer-specific options:

  • General Motors Automotive Service Educational Program (ASEP) Automotive Technology
  • Ford Motor Company Automotive Student Service Education Training (ASSET) Automotive Technology
  • Toyota Technician Training and Education Network (T-TEN) Automotive Technology
