DIY Projects Included

Hardware-grounded projects in your portfolio

Work you build while learning — submitted in the course and reviewed by a trainer, and yours to show afterwards.

🔋
Project 01

Compare cell chemistries

Make a one-page table comparing common lithium chemistries on energy density, power, cycle life and safety, then pick one for a scooter and justify your choice.

📈
Project 02

Work a FUDS cycle calculation

Following the FUDS lesson, calculate the energy a small vehicle draws over the cycle and use it to estimate the pack energy needed for a target number of cycles.

🧩
Project 03

Draw a BMS block diagram

Sketch a BMS for a 16-cell pack showing the AFE, microcontroller, balancing circuit and communication link, and mark whether you would use a star or ring topology.

Course Benefits

What you'll get out of it

Learner Stories

What our learners say

The hardware-first approach made all the difference. Came in from a generalist electronics background; the BMS and motor-drive modules gave me concrete vocabulary I could carry into Infineon interviews.

Souvik Hazra

Senior Manager · Infineon Technologies

Industry-grade depth without the academic ivory tower. The MATLAB Simulink + capstone defence prepared me for exactly the kind of cross-functional EV problems we solve at Cummins.

Sharad Yeola

Started with electronics, walked into a BMS role in Germany. The applied projects + mentor reviews are what carried me through — the certifications opened the door, the depth got me hired.
