Women engineering students at Govt. Mahila Engineering College, Ajmer in Rajasthan receive hands-on electric mobility training in an EV lab completed in February 2026.
The lab covers EV systems, diagnostics and battery technologies, the three areas where electric vehicles differ most from conventional ones. Students trace how energy flows from the battery through the controller to the motor, and why each stage needs its own protection and monitoring.
Epiroc was the implementation partner for the project, bringing an industry partner into the planning and delivery of the lab.
Diagnostics work teaches students to read symptoms, isolate a faulty subsystem and confirm the fix, a method that carries over from the lab bench to vehicle design and testing teams. Battery technology sessions focus on how cells behave under charge and load, how temperature affects performance, and why a battery management system is central to safety. These skills are relevant to roles such as EV service engineer, battery engineer and EV design engineer.
For a women's engineering college in Rajasthan, the lab gives students direct access to EV hardware during their degree rather than after it, strengthening their applications for internships and core engineering roles in electric mobility.
