Learning Experience: The course content was too good , to the point. Everything realted to electrical vehicles has been taught.They told about how electric vehicle will be useful in future.Talked about different types of electric vehicles.The edx platform was too good.

Faculty: The faculty was also good. They are basically from IITs and many prior knowledge of electrical vehicles. They have used it also and one of the faculties has experienced of working in electrical vehicles making firm.Because of that they makes us to give the proper practical approach related to the electric vehicle.They was discussion through group and also there was doubt clearing session ever week. That helps us to clear our doubts. The course curriculum was awesome. First they havve started from basics accordingly till high level. If you don't have any prior knowledge then also you can learn that course without any difficulties. There was 5-6 assignments that you have to pass to get the certificate and also to move to the next section or video.

Course Support: Previous i was focusing on IOT.But after that i went in the electrical vehicle domain and learning more things in that . Got the practical exposure in this domian through my Internships in the field of electrical vehicles. Last year got a job in this field.

Learning Experience: The National Safety Council estimates that in the United States the annual cost of workplace injuries in 2006 exceeded $160 billion. Indirect costs such as lost worker productivity, overtime, poor quality of goods and services, and damage to customer relations and public image can be two to five times the direct costs.

Faculty: University of buffalo The impact of safety performance, positive and negative, reaches far beyond the physical safety of the work force. Workplace injuries often require employees to take time off or result in restricted work duties or the need to transfer to less physically demanding positions. Additionally, there is the cost to repair and replace damaged equipment and the cost of lost or limited production stemming from an unexpected disruption of operations, all of which decrease operational effectiveness and productivity.

Course Support: I get the job in the chemical industries where I can approach my knowledge up on it
