1. Program Overview

The Nanodegree in Battery & BMS Design, Analysis and Simulation is a 6-month, hardware-enabled program designed to equip electrical and electronics engineers with end-to-end competencies in battery management system design, battery pack engineering, cell characterisation, SoC/SoH estimation algorithms, thermal management, protection circuits, and simulation-driven battery analytics using MATLAB, SIMULINK, and Simscape. Created by I3C–IIT Jammu in collaboration with DIYguru eMobility Academy, this program uses industry-standard tools and is delivered through a blend of live faculty-led sessions, hands-on hardware labs, industrial zone exposure in Pune, and a 1-week IIT Jammu campus immersion.

The program follows a three-phase curriculum: Phase 1 (Month 1–2) covers EV Foundations including industry ecosystem, battery technology fundamentals, cell chemistry (Li-ion, LFP, NMC, NCA), and BMS architecture fundamentals; Phase 2 (Month 3–4) covers Intermediate topics including battery pack design, BMS protection modeling, electronics and circuit design for EV applications, and MATLAB-SIMULINK toolbox for EV design; and Phase 3 (Month 5–6) covers Advanced topics including advanced BMS algorithms (SoC, SoH, cell balancing), thermal simulation, and advanced EV design and simulation using MATLAB.

The global battery management system market was valued at USD 8.49 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 31.27 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 25.2% (Grand View Research, 2025). India's EV battery market, valued at USD 2.72 billion in 2025, is projected to reach USD 15.90 billion by 2034 at a CAGR of 21.7% (IMARC Group, 2025). India's lithium-ion battery demand is expected to surge to 260 GWh by 2030, up from 3 GWh in 2020, driven by EV adoption, energy storage, and the government's PLI scheme for Advanced Chemistry Cells (Wiley Energy Storage, 2025).
