The associate of applied science (AAS) degree in auto body repair prepares students to master the fundamentals of repairing and refinishing damaged vehicles and their components. Classroom knowledge is applied through hands-on learning in the technologically advanced shop.
Students learn about damage analysis, cost estimation, welding, metal body panel repair and replacement, cutting and repairing fiberglass body parts, auto glass, and body trim repair. Students also learn how to mix and apply paint to vehicles and parts during classroom and laboratory experiences in the shop’s modern paint booth.
In addition to field specific technical knowledge, students also gain a foundation in business and work experience. Auto body repair instructor Tom Bergstrom is proud of the advanced instruction and shop facilities. “Our program has always been one that stays on the cutting edge and ahead of the curve in the industry.”
