Course Overview

India's electric vehicle industry is scaling fast, and the gap between demand for trained EV design talent and available skilled engineers keeps widening. The Advance Electric Vehicle Design Engineering course is built to close that gap — taking you from EV architecture fundamentals through powertrain, battery pack design, BMS, charging infrastructure and thermal management, into a hands-on capstone project.

Unlike generic EV overview courses, this program is structured the way a design engineering role actually works: you size a motor, you configure a battery pack, you model a drivetrain in MATLAB/Simulink, and you simulate thermal behaviour in ANSYS. It's the same design-first approach IISE uses across its solar and EV careers training tracks, where alumni consistently report faster placement because they can show applied project work, not just theory.

💡 Who this is for: If you can commit a few focused hours a week over 8 weeks, this self-paced course gets you to a portfolio-ready EV subsystem design — no prior automotive background required, though basic electrical/mechanical engineering fundamentals help.

Who Should Enroll

This course is designed to serve five audience segments equally — whichever background you're coming from, the curriculum meets you at a practical, applied level.

🎓

Engineering / Science Graduates

Build a design-engineering portfolio and break into EV product roles straight out of college.

💼

Working Professionals

Pivot from mechanical, electrical or automotive roles into the fast-growing EV design function.

⚡

Power Sector Engineers

Extend your grid and electrical systems expertise into EV powertrain and charging infrastructure.

📊

EV & Solar Entrepreneurs

Get the technical grounding to specify, evaluate and scale your own EV or battery venture.

🛠

ITI / Diploma Holders

Gain practical design and simulation skills that open doors to EV design-associate roles.

8-Week Curriculum

16 modules across 8 weeks, self-paced with lifetime access. Roughly 1–2 modules a week — enough to go deep without burning out alongside a full-time job or degree.

Week 1

EV Architecture Overview & Powertrain Topologies

● Module 1: EV Architecture Overview — Vehicle-level EV architecture, key subsystems and how they interact.

● Module 2: Powertrain Topologies — BLDC vs PMSM motors, in-wheel vs central drive configurations.

Week 2

Motor Design Fundamentals & Torque-Speed Sizing

● Module 3: Motor Design Fundamentals — Core principles of electric motor design for traction applications.

● Module 4: Torque-Speed Sizing — Sizing a motor against torque-speed curves and drive-cycle requirements.

Week 3

Battery Pack Design — Cell Selection & Pack Configuration & Layout

● Module 5: Battery Pack Design — Cell Selection — Cell chemistry and selection criteria — this module builds directly on IISE's Battery Systems courses if you want deeper cell-level grounding first.

● Module 6: Pack Configuration & Layout — Series/parallel pack configuration, mechanical layout and thermal considerations.

Week 4

Battery Management System (BMS) — SOC/SOH & Cell Balancing & Protection Logic

● Module 7: Battery Management System (BMS) — SOC/SOH — State-of-charge and state-of-health estimation methods used in production BMS.

● Module 8: Cell Balancing & Protection Logic — Active/passive cell balancing strategies and protection circuit logic.

Week 5

Charging Infrastructure Standards & Onboard Charger Design Basics

● Module 9: Charging Infrastructure Standards — AC/DC charging standards relevant to India — Bharat AC-001/DC-001 and CCS2.

● Module 10: Onboard Charger Design Basics — Fundamentals of onboard charger (OBC) design and integration.

Week 6

Thermal Management — Battery Cooling & Thermal Management — Motor Cooling

● Module 11: Thermal Management — Battery Cooling — Battery pack cooling strategies: air, liquid and phase-change approaches.

● Module 12: Thermal Management — Motor Cooling — Motor and inverter thermal management for sustained high-load operation.

Week 7

MATLAB/Simulink Drivetrain Modeling & ANSYS Motor & Thermal Simulation

● Module 13: MATLAB/Simulink Drivetrain Modeling — Build and simulate a drivetrain model in MATLAB/Simulink.

● Module 14: ANSYS Motor & Thermal Simulation — Motor electromagnetic and thermal simulation walkthroughs in ANSYS (Motor-CAD / Electronics).

Week 8

Capstone Project Kickoff & Scoping & Capstone Review & Presentation

● Module 15: Capstone Project Kickoff & Scoping — Choose your capstone focus — powertrain, battery pack, or thermal subsystem — and scope the design brief.

● Module 16: Capstone Review & Presentation — Complete and present your end-to-end EV subsystem design for expert review.

Tools & Simulation Labs

You'll work hands-on with the same industry-standard tools used by EV OEM and Tier-1 design teams.

📊 MATLAB / Simulink

Model and simulate drivetrain behaviour, control logic and vehicle-level performance across drive cycles.

🌐 ANSYS (Motor-CAD / Electronics)

Run electromagnetic and thermal simulations for motor design and battery/motor cooling strategy validation.

💡 New to battery fundamentals? If cell chemistry and pack design feel unfamiliar, consider starting with our Battery Systems courses before this program — several students take both back to back.

Hands-On Project

Capstone Project

In your final two weeks, you'll choose a focus area — powertrain, battery pack, or thermal management — and design one complete EV subsystem from spec to simulation. This is the deliverable you take into interviews and portfolio reviews: a real design brief, real constraints, and a real simulated result.

Deliverables: Design brief · sizing calculations · MATLAB/Simulink or ANSYS simulation output · final review with IISE faculty.

Career Outcomes

Graduates move into EV OEM design teams, Tier-1 component suppliers, battery/BMS companies, and their own ventures. Many IISE alumni also move fluidly between solar and battery industry roles, since the underlying power-electronics and systems-design skills transfer directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a prior automotive background to enroll?+

No. Basic electrical or mechanical engineering fundamentals help, but the course is designed to build EV-specific knowledge from the ground up.

Is the course self-paced or fixed-schedule?+

Fully self-paced with lifetime access — you can move through the 16 modules at your own speed, though we recommend 1–2 modules per week to complete in 8 weeks.

Which software tools will I learn to use?+

You'll work with MATLAB/Simulink for drivetrain modeling and ANSYS (Motor-CAD / Electronics) for motor and thermal simulation.

What do I get at the end of the course?+

You complete a capstone project — a full subsystem design with simulation output — plus certification on completing the Advance Electric Vehicle Design Engineering course.

Can I take this course alongside IISE's Battery Systems courses?+

Yes — many students pair this with our Battery Systems courses for deeper cell-level grounding before or after this program.

How is this different from a general EV overview course?+

This is a design-engineering course, not an overview course. You size motors, configure battery packs, and run real simulations rather than just learning EV concepts conceptually.
