Greater Noida (Uttar Pradesh) [India], June 9: Galgotias University, in partnership with L&T EduTech, has launched India's first Advanced Electric Vehicle Centre of Excellence within a university campus. This facility aims to provide students with immersive, industry-grade exposure to next-generation electric mobility technologies and real-world automotive systems.
State-of-the-Art Facility with Live EV Systems
The new centre integrates live electric vehicle technologies directly into the academic ecosystem. It features fully functional electric cars, electric two-wheelers, live battery packs and modules, battery management systems, EV powertrain technologies, charging infrastructure, controllers, motors, diagnostic platforms, and embedded mobility systems. Designed as an experiential learning and applied engineering environment, the centre enables students to work directly on technologies shaping the future of global transportation.
Hands-On Learning Beyond Simulations
Unlike conventional engineering laboratories that rely primarily on simulation-based learning, the Advanced EV Centre of Excellence allows students to engage hands-on with actual electric mobility platforms and industrial-grade components used across the EV ecosystem. Students will gain practical exposure to EV architecture, battery technologies, charging systems, diagnostics, thermal management, embedded systems, drivetrain integration, power electronics, vehicle communication systems, and sustainable mobility engineering.
Industry-Aligned Curriculum and Training
The collaboration with L&T EduTech integrates an industry-aligned curriculum, experiential learning modules, specialised technical training, and application-oriented learning frameworks into the academic environment. The initiative aims to strengthen industry readiness and create a future-ready talent pipeline for India's rapidly expanding electric mobility and clean transportation sector.
Leadership Vision
Dr. Dhruv Galgotia, Chief Executive Officer of Galgotias University, stated, "The future of engineering education will be shaped by how closely universities integrate learning with real industry systems and emerging technologies. The Advanced EV Centre of Excellence developed with L&T EduTech gives students direct exposure to live electric mobility platforms, battery technologies, diagnostics, and industry-grade infrastructure that are defining the future of transportation globally. As India rapidly expands its electric mobility ecosystem, universities must move beyond conventional classroom models and create immersive, application-oriented environments that prepare students for high-impact innovation, research, and industry leadership."
Growing Partnership
This collaboration builds on the growing partnership between Galgotias University and L&T EduTech. Earlier this year, L&T EduTech recognized Galgotias University as a Blue Chip Partner during L&T EduTech NEXUS 2026, acknowledging the university's strong industry engagement, technology-led learning ecosystem, and continued focus on future-ready engineering education and innovation-driven academic collaboration.
Supporting Interdisciplinary Learning and Research
The facility strengthens the momentum around electric mobility, sustainable transportation, clean energy technologies, and advanced manufacturing. It is expected to support interdisciplinary learning and applied research across engineering, electronics, artificial intelligence, robotics, embedded systems, automotive technologies, and smart mobility solutions. The centre further expands Galgotias University's ecosystem of industry-integrated laboratories, advanced technology infrastructure, innovation centres, and experiential learning facilities developed in collaboration with leading industry partners. The university has continued to build capabilities across emerging technology domains including artificial intelligence, semiconductors, electric mobility, cybersecurity, immersive technologies, and high-performance computing.
Impact on India's EV Market
With India's EV market witnessing accelerated growth across automotive manufacturing, battery innovation, charging infrastructure, mobility services, and clean transportation technologies, the Advanced EV Centre of Excellence is expected to create stronger pathways for students towards research, innovation, entrepreneurship, and high-growth careers within the global electric mobility ecosystem.
