enhance the capabilities of engineering students to use mathematics for solving problems in larger projects as well as to communicate and present mathematical content. As opposed to many case studies‚ we concentrate on stating criteria and project classes from which instructors can build instances (i.e. specific projects). The main goal of this paper is to facilitate the definition of new „good“ projects in a certain curricular setting. 1. INTRODUCTION Learning and training mathematical concepts and algorithms
