The centre will have the best technology from Germany and will be equipped with ultra-modern manufacturing and process control equipment to train students from automotive, mechanical, electrical and electronics stream starting with a one-year advanced diploma course in mechatronics and robotics. There are plans to introduce post-graduate courses later. Collaboration with foreign universities in the UK, US and Canada is also under consideration for course exchanges.
The innovative course combines mechanical, electronic, electrical and computerised control of vehicles, and provide adequate industry-institution interaction.
