Automotive majors
The only Penn State affiliated automotive program offers both technology and tradition.

Gain hands-on experience (no more than two students per project) and learn from faculty with real industry experience.

One of the nation's oldest programs also has the most advanced facilities, equipment, and curriculum.
Formal automotive technician training is the best preparation. Opportunities should be very good for those who complete postsecondary automotive training programs (source)
