Hence there will be a decrease in physical, manual and basic cognitive skills andincreased demand in technological and social skills in Industry.With the increase in demand for social skills, the requirement of complex collaboration andeffective teamwork will further increase with the expansion of technological advancement inengineering workplaces shifting to 4IR. However, industry and academia have not agreed onwhat important teamwork aspects are necessary to comprehend the changes in Industry 4.0.There are several initiatives taken by engineering researchers to identify the important teamworkattributes required

technologies currently being developed hasprofound implications for engineering education. Our students have to face increasinglycomplex adaptive systems organized in recursive, nonlinear feedback loops. A morepronounced attention to nonlinear systems could thus enable our students to understand notonly the usefulness but also the limits of linearity, and facilitate the comprehension of morecomplex systems. This is especially true for mathematics, as differential equations play afundamental role in the modeling and analysis of complex systems.Courses in ordinary differential equations are part of the majority of undergraduateengineering curricula, and typically cover analytical solution methods for first-order andlinear higher-order differential
