Amity University and Tata Motors join hands to offer degree course for M-Tech in EV technology
The M-Tech programme in electric vehicle technology will not only serve to expand job prospects in the industry.
Tata Motors, India’s largest electric four-wheeler producer, has partnered with Amity University, one of India’s premier institutes, to train competent EV technicians. The two have launched a collaboration that will provide M-Tech degrees to those aspiring to be EV engineers or technicians. Amity University’s Lucknow campus will be offering the course. Tata Motors hired graduates for its Lucknow factory after they graduated with a degree.
Candidates with technical competence will be offered the M-Tech course in EV technology. As a result, there will be more opportunities for employment in the EV sector and a stronger skilled labour force to meet the nation’s rising demand for electric vehicles. The course will be delivered over the course of two years, divided into four semesters. The first will deal with theory and is called a “technical orientation.” Practical workshops will be included in the second. Both events will take place at the Tata Motors and Amity University campuses in Lucknow.
Ravindra Kumar GP, President and CHRO of Tata Motors, stated, “At Tata Motors, we are committed to maintaining a talented and engaged workforce that can fulfil the promises we have made to our stakeholders.” This partnership with Amity University, Uttar Pradesh, Lucknow Campus will not only give our employees a path for professional advancement and skill development, but it will also assist us in developing a workforce that is prepared for the future. Given the considerable investments Tata Motors is making in electric vehicles, this training will only help our staff stay up with the pace of technological development and gain a greater understanding of the transition to EV technology and other cutting-edge technologies. ”
Professor at Amity University’s Uttar Pradesh Lucknow campus and pro vice chancellor Sunil Dhaneshwar stated, “We are overjoyed to be collaborating with Tata Motors on this project.” Students will be able to keep up with the most recent business practises thanks to this initiative, which will benefit both parties. This programme will assist us in creating a talent pool with a competitive advantage, advanced knowledge, and a closing skills gap. ”
Tata Motors now leads the EV race in India, with a market share of more than 80% in the electric four-wheeler class. The Nexon EV and Tigor EV, two of its models, are now the two best-selling electric vehicles in India. The Nexon EV Max, a more potent variant of the Nexon EV, was also recently unveiled by Tata Motors.
