The Aircraft Powerplant Maintenance Technology major provides general education and knowledge and skills required for entry level employment in aircraft powerplant maintenance. The aircraft powerplant maintenance training received at the CCSF Aeronautics Department is certified by the FAA, CFR Part 147. Upon successfully completing and passing (with at least a 70% score) all required subject areas associated with the aircraft powerplant maintenance training, as well as completing and passing all General Education courses, the student will then qualify to receive the Aircraft Powerplant Maintenance Technology Certificate and Associate of Science and qualify to take their FAA exams. Once the graduating student passes all the required FAA exams, they are qualified to work in the aviation industry as a FAA Certified Powerplant Technician.
Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this program, students will be able to:
·
We anticipate approximately 10-15 completers per academic year.
This AS degree fits the goals of CCSF and the Airport center to prepare students to enter the workforce. The classes included in the Major are directly aligned with certificated programs to complete the FAA mandated curriculum and qualify to take the FAA exams and work as a FAA certified powerplant technician.
