Abstract

Recently the engineering institutes in India and abroad ignored the importance of mathematical modeling techniques in engineering teaching process and gave no places in their curriculum. In the present study the investigator applied random sampling on 15 post graduate engineering students, formulated four hypotheses connecting the innovative (attitude, relative advantage) and implementation variablion (utilisatation, satisfaction) and examined the relationships between the two variables. By using regression analysis, the result demonstrated that the two variables were significantly related. This implies the implementation of mathematical modeling in the engineering discipline was not successful. The investigator tried to identify the factors that would determine the successful implementation of mathematical modeling in the engineering discipline. It is critically important that mathematically trained and technologically competent research experts should be appointed and utilized as resources in the engineering research making bodies. Engineering research institutes with mathematical modeling facility should be collaborated with those that lack them to provide all research activities and opportunity to witness, learn from successful modeling related experiments.

Highlights

  • The Engineering institutes in India and worldwide ignored the importance of mathematical modeling practices among the post engineering students and gave no place in their research curriculum

  • Attitude and Relative Advantage The attitude of post graduate engineering students was generally positive towards mathematical modeling techniques

  • The present investigation study is aimed at improving practice in the post graduate engineering students by implementing mathematical modeling techniques have the following research implications The importance of attitude, relative advantage in the utilization and satisfaction process underscores the need for strategic planning in mathematical modeling in EEE, ECE BE engineering teaching and training, designed to accomplish specific curriculum objectives

Summary

Introduction

The Engineering institutes in India and worldwide ignored the importance of mathematical modeling practices among the post engineering students and gave no place in their research curriculum. They ignored the critical input of mathematical modeling knowledge which is the key agents as regards conceptualizing and planning to make breakthrough. The immediate commitment of any engineering research organization is that all the research scholars must develop, sharpen and deepen their understanding mathematical modeling technique and its process For this to occur a rigorous mathematical research curriculum must be recognized, taught and assessed in a problem solving environment
