Cert in Diesel Repair – Industrial and Marine

Diesel Repair – Industrial and Marine at Nova Scotia Community College is a one-year certificate program that trains students to maintain and repair industrial and marine diesel engines and their components. Coursework covers engine overhaul, cooling, lubrication, and electrical systems, along with the use of tools and equipment, fabrication to specific tolerances, reading schematics, drawings and manuals, and applying mechanical, electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic principles across systems. A mandatory field experience credit course gives students the opportunity to apply their skills outside the classroom. Graduates who register as apprentices may be eligible to receive credit toward future certification in several related trades. The program suits students interested in mechanical repair work in industrial and marine settings; applicants require a High School Graduation Diploma or equivalent, and international applicants must meet country-specific diploma equivalency and English language requirements.
