Course Overview

Diesel engines are known for their durability and are commonly found in heavy-duty vehicles such as buses, large trucks, boats, bulldozers, dump trucks, cranes, and some light-duty trucks and cars. Unlike gasoline-powered engines, diesel engines have specific needs and requirements when it comes to maintenance. Diesel mechanics are responsible for tasks ranging from routine oil changes to full engine overhauls.

Diesel mechanics must have a thorough understanding of a vehicle’s electrical system, engine, and all its components. They are skilled in both mechanical and technical aspects, often using diagnostic software on advanced vehicles to identify problems.

Graduates will gain expertise in various areas of mechanics, including:

  • Engine maintenance
  • Routine maintenance and service procedures
  • Workplace safety
  • Tools and equipment handling
  • Servicing brakes, cooling systems, and fuel systems
  • Battery service
  • Electrical fundamentals
