MOTORCYCLE, MARINE & SMALL ENGINE TECHNOLOGY

The small engine of today is not so small anymore and serves us in ways never imagined. From the large engines that propel boats to those that power recreational vehicles and lawn-care machines, all require the services of a highly knowledgeable and skilled technician. The MME technology program teaches its students the theories and applications behind the maintenance and repair of a wide variety of motorized equipment and vehicles. This equipment includes generators, industrial tow motor lifts, and material handling devices used in all phases of warehousing and manufacturing. Students reinforce their theory lessons through actual maintenance and repair of appropriate equipment and vehicles.
