1. Program Overview

The Nanodegree in EV Engineering, Design, Simulations and Analysis is a 6-month, hardware-enabled program designed to equip electrical and electronics engineers with end-to-end competencies in EV system modelling, simulation-driven design, power electronics, battery pack design, BMS protection modelling, and powertrain development. Created by I3C–IIT Jammu in collaboration with DIYguru eMobility Academy, this program uses industry-standard tools — MATLAB, Simulink, QSS Toolbox, ADVISOR Toolbox, ANSYS, and Proteus — and is delivered through a blend of live faculty-led sessions, hands-on hardware labs, industrial zone exposure in Pune, and a 3-Day IIT Jammu campus immersion.

The program follows a three-phase curriculum: Phase 1 (Month 1–2) covers EV Foundations including industry ecosystem, battery technology, motors, electrification, charging systems, and advanced EV engineering with numerical analysis for EVs, HEVs, and heavy vehicles; Phase 2 (Month 3–4) covers Intermediate topics including electronics and circuit design for EV applications, EV design and simulation using MATLAB, and advanced MATLAB-SIMULINK with QSS & Advisor Toolbox; and Phase 3 (Month 5–6) covers Advanced topics including powertrain development for electric vehicles and battery pack design with BMS protection modelling.

The global EV simulation and modelling software market is projected to reach USD 12.95 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 13.68% (Mordor Intelligence, 2025). In India, the EV market is growing at a 49% CAGR (2022–2030), driving massive demand for simulation and systems engineers. The power electronics segment alone is expected to grow at 16.2% CAGR through 2030 (Allied Market Research), yet 94% of employers report a shortage of skilled engineers with simulation and modelling competencies (Mordor Intelligence, 2025).

DIYguru is recognised and endorsed by the Ministry of Education, NITI Aayog, and NEAT AICTE for its commitment to upskilling in automotive and EV technologies. With 95,000+ professionals trained across 320+ industry partners including Bosch, Hyundai, Maruti Suzuki, Tata Motors, and Altair, the program maintains placement support through the dedicated emobility.careers placement engine.
