What you'll learn

Think like a vehicle architect, choosing powertrain topology, voltage architecture, and electrical and E/E architecture
Build electrochemical and physics based battery models, advanced state estimation with Kalman filtering, and degradation and life prediction
Apply model predictive control and reinforcement learning to vehicle control, and know the honest limits of AI in safety critical systems
Apply ISO 26262 functional safety, hazard analysis, ASIL determination, and full traceability and verification
Build a complete functional safety and controls verification package with MIL and SIL testing and an ISO 26262 aligned safety case
Design vehicle thermal architecture, AUTOSAR based software architecture, and vehicle level fault diagnostics
Build digital twins for vehicles and batteries, and understand prognostics, connected vehicles, and OTA updates
Understand charging infrastructure, V2G, grid integration, and battery second life
Architect and defend a complete EV platform with integrated powertrain, BMS, thermal, control, safety, and digital twin validation

Course content

8 modules · 48 lessons · 16 h 10 min

EV systems architecture, advanced battery engineering, advanced controls and machine learning, functional safety and Model Based Design, thermal integration and vehicle networks, a minor project building a functional safety and verification package, digital twins prognostics and fleet systems, and a major project architecting a complete EV platform.

Requirements

  • Completion of the Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Technology Intermediate level, or hands on experience modelling BMS, motor control, and vehicle energy management
  • A computer capable of running MATLAB, Simulink, Simscape, and Stateflow
  • Comfort with control systems, battery modelling, and vehicle networks concepts

About this course

Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Technology with Ucanly, Level 3 Advanced, takes you from engineer to EV systems architect. Built for practitioners who have completed the Intermediate level or have hands on experience modelling BMS, motor control, and vehicle energy management, this program goes deep into vehicle architecture, voltage architecture trade offs, and requirements engineering. You will build advanced battery models with Kalman filtering and degradation prediction, apply model predictive control and reinforcement learning to vehicle control, and understand the honest limits of AI in safety critical control. You will master ISO 26262 functional safety, hazard analysis and ASIL determination, and Model Based Design with MIL, SIL, PIL, and HIL verification, and in your minor project in week six, build a complete functional safety and controls verification package for an EV subsystem, with a Model Based Design workflow, MIL and SIL testing, an ISO 26262 aligned safety argument, and a defended verification case. You will then study vehicle thermal architecture, AUTOSAR software architecture, and digital twins, prognostics, and connected vehicle systems including V2G and grid integration. You will graduate having architected a full EV platform in your week twelve major project, with an integrated powertrain, BMS, thermal and energy management, a machine learning enabled feature, a safety and requirements framework, and digital twin validation, defended live to Ucanly mentors. This program is fully online, with all practical work delivered through industry standard simulation and Model Based Design tools that OEMs and suppliers genuinely use for production controls and safety development.
