SUNY Morrisville

Keep up with an industry where the pace of change is fast and furious.

We’ve been popping hoods and wrenching on parts since before there was a successfully mass-produced car or turn signals and air-conditioning were invented. The automotive industry has changed a lot since then (1933), and we have been there for every new development—from airbags and fuel injection systems to hybrids and smart cars.

At SUNY Morrisville, you will study—and put your hands on—every part of a vehicle, bumper to bumper, roof to undercarriage. Whether your interest is wrenching on a trusty tractor or working with onboard computers in the latest hybrids, we have the program for you. Our students love vehicles inside and out, so we offer programs in auto body, auto mechanics and automotive management.
