Maths for Engineering and Science (Reference: M3)

For many years concern has been expressed about the decline in the mathematical skills possessed by entrants to engineering and science degree programmes. Engineering and science have increasingly become less popular and consequently have struggled to find sufficient numbers of recruits with the required level of entry qualification. Any initiatives which increase motivation among students and give them alternative environments in which to improve their mathematical skills are to welcomed. This booklet provides the opportunity to share some such initiatives with colleagues who are facing the same challenges with their own students.
