IIT Delhi introduces a certificate program in the design of hybrid electric cars
The goal of IIT Delhi's innovative curriculum is to give participants the knowledge and understanding they need to successfully negotiate the challenges posed by the electrification of modern vehicles.
A brand-new, six-month certificate program at the Indian Institute of Technology, IIT Delhi, is centered on hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) design. Engineers with expertise in mechanical, electrical, automotive, and allied fields are the target audience for this program.
The need for experts who can design and build hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) is growing as the automotive sector moves faster towards a sustainable future.
The automotive sector needs qualified experts who can bridge the gap between traditional automotive engineering and the quickly developing EV and Hybrid EV space, given the Indian government's ambitious objective of electrifying thirty percent of new vehicle sales by 2030.
The Indian Institute of Technology, IIT Delhi, which is well-known for ranking second in the Ministry of Education's NIRF 2023 rankings for Engineering, announced the launch of a unique Certificate Programme in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) Design in response to the growing demand for expertise in the quickly developing field of vehicle electrification.
Specifically created for engineers from mechanical, electrical, automotive, and related fields who want to build a solid foundation in EV/HEV technology, this intensive 6-month curriculum has a significant impact. Professionals switching from conventional internal combustion engine technology to EVs and HEVs are another target audience.
It also serves professionals who want to strengthen their current knowledge and abilities in the EV/HEV field by giving them access to cutting-edge information and training needed to create creative, efficient, and sustainable hybrid electric vehicles that satisfy changing market demands.
The Indian automotive sector is predicted to be valued at USD 1 trillion by 2035, according to the Arthur D. Little paper Transforming India into a Global Automotive Hub: Roadmap for the Automotive Ecosystem.
According to a different analysis by research firm Counterpoint, India's EV industry is anticipated to expand by 66% by 2024. Experts in the design, development, and production of hybrid electric vehicles are needed to meet this demand and close the gap in the EV market.
Participants in this program will be capable of:
- Explain the operational characteristics of an internal combustion engine (ICE).
- Describe the hybridization and electrification processes for cars.
- Describe the different electric motors and propulsion systems found in HEVs.
- Describe the fundamentals of the many kinds of energy storage systems.
- Describe the testing and modeling techniques used to evaluate the safety, dependability, and performance of batteries.
The program is designed for engineers with expertise in mechanical, electrical, automotive, and related fields.
The certificate program is a six-month intensive curriculum.
Participants will learn to: Explain the operational characteristics of an internal combustion engine (ICE). Describe the hybridization and electrification processes for cars. Describe the different electric motors and propulsion systems found in HEVs. Describe the fundamentals of various kinds of energy storage systems. Describe the testing and modeling techniques used to evaluate the safety, reliability, and performance of batteries.
The demand is growing due to the automotive sector's rapid shift towards sustainable practices and the Indian government's ambitious objective to electrify thirty percent of new vehicle sales by 2030.
According to an Arthur D. Little report, the Indian automotive sector is expected to be valued at USD 1 trillion by 2035. Additionally, research firm Counterpoint predicts that India's EV industry will grow by 66% by 2024
