Project based learningturned out to be a particularly suitable method to demonstrate the need of mathematicalmethods, since there seems to be no better way of acquiring comprehension than if it arisesfrom personal experience. The students are confronted early on in their courses withchallenging problems arising in industry. These problems are usually of a multidisciplinarynature and have in common that the mathematical competencies needed for their solution areslightly beyond the students’ skills. Having realized the gap in their knowledge ofmathematical methods, students are eager to bridge it, thus drawing their attention towardstheir mathematics education. It is important to
