"I chose M State’s Diesel Technology program over others in part because of the location 和 what it has to offer, but also because of the welcome I received when I toured the facility. I thought the best part of the program was that it has a structured daily work schedule, as it would be later in our careers.
源自M State, I got a job at Ziegler CAT in Crookston as a shop technician, then transferred within the company 关闭r to home after two years to work as a shop technician on the night shift in 费格斯瀑布. When a position opened up for service supervisor, I took a chance 和 applied. I’d like to thank the diesel program instructors 和 the college for helping me get ready to take that leap. Without the technical skills I learned 和 the work ethic they taught I would not be in the position I’m in.
"My advice to incoming diesel students is to work hard every day. Don’t take breaks in your learning because, 如果你知道, the next person applying for that job posting might be one step ahead of you."
