Students who study B.Tech. Automotive Engineering with a focus on E-Mobility will acquire the skills necessary to design sustainable and high-performance mobility solutions. One of the primary challenges automotive engineers face is to innovate cost-effective and environment-friendly mobility solutions that adhere to severe emission regulations in addition to the ever-increasing safety and performance criteria. This B.Tech. Automotive Engineering in E-Mobility program will provide students with an in-depth knowledge of conventional, electric, and hybrid vehicle technologies; economic and sustainability analyses of electric vehicles; the certification and homologation process of vehicles; and machine learning concepts applied to vehicles.
Duration

DESIGN YOUR OWN DEGREE
UPES’ curriculum framework is holistic in its overall structure and yet focuses on the individual need of the student to discover, experience, explore and challenge. Along with the core subject, students have the option to choose from subject-focused specialisations. They are also allowed to choose minor/exploratory subject from other schools at UPES that are: School of Engineering, School of Computer Science, School of Law, School of Business, School of Health Sciences, School of Design, School of Modern Media, and School of Liberal Studies.
Further, based on the multifaceted needs of the global workplace and evolving lifestyles, the curriculum offers Signature and Life-Skills courses through School for Life. To round off this learning experience, students are required to do mandatory internships in the social sector, government/public sector, and industry. The combinations available for students to pick and choose from are endless, ensuring both depth and width of knowledge.
