M.Tech in Automotive Electronics
M. TECH – AUTOMOTIVE ELECTRONICS

National Institute of Electronics and Information Technology
Technology development has seen growth in leaps and bounds primarily in the Passenger Car
Segment (PCS). The electronic content in cars started with the introduction of the in-car
entertainment system, alternators, regulators and other electronics components. Other technological
developments in the field of auto electronics were the result of Customer demand and Legislative
Pull. Growing electronics content in PCS has led to the growth of the Global Auto Electronics
market to $230 billion in 2020; up from $140 billion in 2010. With a growing number of sensors
and ECUs installed, the overall cost of electronics in a car is expected to reach 45% by 2030 (ACM
Report). With highly dynamic market scenarios, the Asia Pacific market is expected to drive the
growth of Auto Electronics worldwide. Government mandate on emission norms and safety norms
are the major thrust for the growth of electronics content in Powertrain and Safety programs
worldwide.
The introduction of electronic substitutes in vehicles with a gradual phase-out of mechanical

components also has fueled the growth of the auto electronics market. Legislative and Customer
Pull are leading to the advent of new technologies across vehicle segments (PV, CV, and 2W) such
as ABS, Rear lighting control, Active Suspension and others. Ninety per cent of innovations in the
modern car are based on new developments in electronics.
Increase in the complexity of modern cars also increases the demands placed on design,
development, diagnostics, maintenance and repair. Currently there is a great shortage of qualified
automotive engineers with good design and development skills. Vehicles will continue to become
more complex; therefore, the need for skilled human resources will continue to grow. Hence there
need a unique training program in automotive electronics with an emphasis on electronics system
of Vehicles. M.Tech in Automotive Electronics is designed to cater to the needs of skill
requirements in Industries.
