Diesel Technology
Name _____________________________ SID ________________ Date ___________ Advisor _____________________
The diesel technician must be able to work on a great variety of equipment and their component parts. These include brake systems, drive trains, electrical and
electronic circuits, hydraulic systems, and diesel engines. Diesel power is used in the transportation industry in light, medium, and heavy-duty trucks and in
industrial applications such as heavy equipment, agriculture, marine propulsion, power generation, and locomotives. Because of the widespread use of this type
of power, diesel technicians can work in a shop or outdoors as a field service technician. This program is designed to prepare students for entry-level positions
into the diesel technician trade. Diesel program instruction includes both classroom theory and extensive hands-on experience in the shop where the student
encounters real day-to-day problems.
