It will also provide an opportunity for the students to get hands-on practical expertise in EV technologies.

Introduced in 2006, the ADAM course is an initiative by Mercedes-Benz focused on building competencies and skills and has been successfully operational in nine technical institutions in various cities across the country. Over 1200 students have benefited from the ADAM course since its inception, wherein they have achieved successful placements in the industry.
