Utility Line Technician (UTAAS)

A 1.0 credit hour CPR/First Aid course is also required for those who do not currently hold a valid CPR/First Aid card.

Students are required to obtain a Class A, O restriction, Commercial Driver's License (CDL) in order to graduate. Training and testing for this requirement is provided by the MCC Truck Driving program, although students may acquire the CDL on their own. A 3.5 credit hour class is arranged to fit into the student's schedule..

Entrance into the UTIL program is determined by an application process. Contact an academic advisor or faculty member to acquire an application packet. Applications can be completed online at www.mccneb.edu/util/application.asp.

Below is a suggested guide for the traditional and weekend options and a suggested guide for recent high school graduates. General education requirements can be completed before, during, or after the UTIL coursework is completed; however, completing the general education requirements before the UTIL classes will improve the student's chance of being accepted into the program. Students should contact Student Services to design a plan of study.

This track would allow the student to satisfy all of general education requirements and the elective requirements for the UTAAS degree. Students completing this track would be given preference in the admission process.
