Alumni Stories

What our 50,000+ alumni say

Engineers from Mercedes-Benz, Cummins, Infineon, GM, Hydro One, John Deere and more.

The hardware-first approach made all the difference. Came in from a generalist electronics background; the BMS and motor-drive modules gave me concrete vocabulary I could carry into Infineon interviews.

Souvik Hazra

Senior Manager · Infineon Technologies

Industry-grade depth without the academic ivory tower. The MATLAB Simulink + capstone defence prepared me for exactly the kind of cross-functional EV problems we solve at Cummins.

Sharad Yeola

Application Controls Lead · Cummins Inc.

Started with electronics, walked into a BMS role in Germany. The applied projects + mentor reviews are what carried me through — the certifications opened the door, the depth got me hired.
