Which EV course fits the Chennai job market?
- You want a fresher GET or EV engineer role. The Post Graduate Program in Electric Vehicle Design & Development covers batteries, motors, power electronics and controls, the broad base GET interviews test. It is the program most Chennai placements came from.
- You want motor and drive work (the Sona Comstar type of job). Add the short course Electric Motor Design using MATLAB and ANSYS Maxwell, or take it alone if you already work in the industry.
- You want embedded and firmware roles. The PG Program in Embedded Systems for EV Applications (24 weeks) goes deeper into C, microcontrollers and CAN.
- You are still in college. The Pre-Graduate Program in Electric Mobility (16 weeks) is the cheaper start.
Online course or a classroom institute in Chennai?
A classroom suits you if you learn better with fixed hours and want to touch real hardware. An online course suits you if you are in college or working, or if the institute near you cannot show real placements. Whichever you choose, ask these four questions before you pay:
- Hardware or only software? Ask whether you will work on real battery packs, motors or controllers, or only in simulation. Skill-Lync's EV programs are simulation and software based (MATLAB/Simulink, ANSYS Maxwell, and embedded programming in IDEs and simulators).
- Named placements. Ask for last year's hires by company and role. "100% placement assistance" is not a placement record. This page shows ours, with the year of each.
- Software licences. MATLAB and Simulink are paid tools. Ask whether you get a licence for the course, or need your college's.
- The real total. Ask for the fee including GST and the interest on any EMI plan, not only the monthly figure.

How these numbers were counted
From Skill-Lync's placement records as of 15 Nov 2026: placements in the EV, HEV, MBD and electrical domains whose job location names exactly one city (locations such as "Bangalore / Chennai", a state or "PAN India" are left out). Spellings are merged (Bengaluru, Banglore). Salaries are offers in lakh per annum that learners reported; averages and the middle half (25th to 75th percentile) use only records with a salary, and no average is shown below 20 offers. Employer names are merged across spellings. These records are self-selected and mostly from 2021-2023; treat them as a starting point, not as the whole market.
