Abstract
Engineering drawing is a critical skill in the education of future engineers, serving as a foundation for technical communication and design. However, many engineering students encounter significant difficulties and challenges in mastering this subject. This study aims to identify and analyze the common obstacles faced by students in engineering drawing courses, including conceptual understanding, spatial visualization, technical precision, and interpretation of standards and conventions. Data were collected through surveys, interviews, and academic performance analysis from a representative sample of engineering students. Findings reveal that challenges stem from inadequate prior knowledge, limited exposure to practical applications, insufficient teaching methods, and the lack of effective instructional tools. Moreover, the study highlights the role of technology, such as CAD software, as both a learning aid and a potential barrier due to its complexity. Recommendations are provided for educators to enhance learning outcomes through improved pedagogical approaches, integration of interactive tools, and hands-on practice. The results underscore the importance of addressing these challenges to ensure that students develop the necessary proficiency in engineering drawing for their professional careers.
