Indian automotive industry contributes 6.4 percent to GDP, around 35 percent to manufacturing GDP, supports over 8 million jobs directly (OEMs, suppliers, and dealers), and as many as 30 million more in the value chain. Presently, a large number of trained manpower is required in OEMs and auto ancillaries to support the manufacturing of new generation vehicles operating with BS-VI Technology. Govt of India is aiming to become the largest manufacturer of two and three-wheeler electric vehicles and cars which ensures a surge in demand for trained manpower.
To cater to that ever-increasing need of the automotive industry, B.Voc in Automotive Manufacturing Technology is aiming to produce skilled individuals in specific domains of conventional and computer-aided machining, welding technology, computer-aided design, material testing, etc. along with providing in-depth knowledge of automotive technology (two, three and four-wheelers) and manufacturing technology and management. The inclusion of advanced topics like Mechatronics, Rapid Prototyping, and Reverse Engineering, Agile and Lean Manufacturing will necessarily increase the employability of an individual in the modern automotive industry.
