Abstract

Engineering mathematics is essential for fostering analytical and problem-solving abilities in engineering education, especially in Malaysia, where it plays a crucial role in the nation's technical and industrial ambitions. Nevertheless, students encounter substantial obstacles such as the need to strike a balance between grasping abstract concepts and acquiring practical skills, surmounting feelings of apprehension about mathematics, actively participating in crowded classrooms, and adapting to the demands of online education and self-directed study. This paper examines the difficulties and suggests remedies, with a focus on incorporating active learning methods, creating supportive learning environments, and using digital resources to improve student involvement and understanding. The study emphasizes the significance of visualizing abstract mathematical ideas and establishing connections with practical engineering applications. These strategies are important to maintain the sustainable development of engineering education. By using these strategies, instructors may enhance pupils' readiness for prosperous engineering jobs, guaranteeing that they grasp mathematical ideas, and possess the ability to apply them proficiently in real-world situations.
