The field of engineering has experienced significant changes over the past century. As a direct result of this, the educational demand of the workforce in the engineering field has increased accordingly. Mathematics education in engineering has however remained, has relatively rigid over this period, undergoing little progress over the period of the last century in spite of the changes .Particularly,Engineering Mathematic Courses are the central part of engineering curriculum of Benchmark Minimum Academics Standards For Undergraduate Programmes(BMAS) in Nigerian Universities. A student is taking minimum 32 hrs/unit mathematics course during five years academic program. This study is about how many essence of units should be efficiently integrated in an engineering curriculum with the help of new trend of acceptance teaching engineers Keywords—component; formatting; style; styling; insert (key words)
I. INTRODUCTION
Mathematics in engineering program has also been known as one of the main courses in engineering. Because of many students are not successful at those courses, they may give the decision to change their department or leave school without taking their departmental core courses. That’s why we need a new mathematics updated program. Several educators have already recognized a new approach to mathematics and engineering [1-7].. …show more content…

Today’s engineer need to keep up with technological developments and be well versed in mathematical modelling and technical computing principles. A concentration on applied statistics is proposed as the only concentration for the engineering mathematics course in the 5th year. It is also predicted that with the training throughout the engineering degree program, a gentle phasing out of the multiple borrowed programming courses will be seen. This will also reduce the credit units required for the engineering
