The automotive repair industry is undergoing a digital transformation, and education must keep pace. Emirates University's recent integration of Sianty's garage management software into its automotive technology program marks a significant leap forward in preparing students for the modern workshop environment.

Bridging the Classroom-Industry Gap

Traditional automotive education often focuses solely on mechanical skills, leaving graduates unprepared for today's digital shop floors. The university's program now gives students hands-on experience with the same garage management system used by leading UAE workshops, including:

• Digital vehicle inspection workflows

• AI-assisted diagnostic processes

• Smart inventory management

• Customer relationship tools
