Abstract

It is evident that the development of future generations with the right skills and knowledge, for a career in engineering at all levels, is essential for the future economic prosperity of any country. Moreover, in the future we will need professional engineers with greater interdisciplinary understanding, and with more specialist skills. So, we will need a deeper understanding of the sciences that underpin the art of engineering, and we will therefore need to know which are the mathematical skills needed to apply these sciences. Because advances in the use of information technology and computers have transformed engineering analytical techniques, production and management processes, it raises some questions: What is and will be the role of mathematics in the education of engineering? What mathematical skills are needed for the engineers of tomorrow, and how and when these might best be acquired? This paper is dedicated to an objective analysis of the positioning of mathematics courses to those of specialized training mechanical engineers. Both authors share their extensive experience in teaching mathematics and science of mechanical engineering at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.
