    An Edtech Venture by DRaS

Certified Crash Courses on Emerging Defence Systems

Defence Technology has become a fundamental pillar of national security, economic growth and geopolitical leverage for nations. As the global security architecture experiences profound churn, India is in transition from being the world's largest arms importer to a potential exporter in coming years. 'Op Sindoor' is an example of how our nation could pull out a victory by opting superior technology. The certified crash course curriculums we offer on Emerging Defence Systems and Technologies are  curated by retired armed forces veterans. These courses could give adequate exposure to the students and help them pursue their interest in Defence and Armed Forces. DRaS eAcademy is a humble initiative by Defence Research and Studies (DRaS) for the larger interest of student community in India and abroad.

Supporting the Nation Building

The courses devised by DRaS e Academy could give an insight into start-up and innovation opportunities available in defence applications specific to AI, Autonomous platforms, Aerospace, Satellites surveillance, Information Warfare/ Electronic Warfare, IR 4.0 Technologies, Laser Technologies, Hypersonic Systems, Smart Weapon Systems etc. These crash courses are developed for UG/PG students with engineering or defence studies background.

There exists a huge gap between academia and armed forces in the country. There are constraints for uniformed personnel in divulging information on defence systems to academia and industry view security reasons. Though young students are very enthused to learn and support defence and military platforms, there is nobody to impart them with knowledge on military systems. Retired defence officers can play a major role in bridging this gap, currently an ecosystem is available in the country for entrepreneurs and innovators to initiate start-ups specific to emerging defence technologies and can contribute to the military ecosystem without wearing military uniforms. The certified courses offered here in DRaS eAcademy would help the aspirants explore these opportunities.


Existing defence technologies have matured and have been commercialized by the West and are restricted to licensed production. However a huge opportunity is available for youngsters to explore their career in  emerging technologies domain and catch up with the leading nations in the coming years. Now is the right time for academia to start courses aligning to the new government policies. Exposing students at UG level in defence technologies would certainly give them an early exposure. DRaS plays a major role in creatin an  interest among students on cutting edge military technology. Nations world wide is now looking India as a alternative source for quality military hardware and weapons.
