second focuses on transfer from physics toengineering. We use a theoretical framework that distinguishes between two kinds of transferprocesses. Based on this theoretical framework and using both qualitative and quantitativemethods we examine the difficulties that learners have when they attempt to transfer theirlearning from mathematics to physics to engineering. Our results indicate that although studentshave the requisite calculus knowledge they have difficulties in applying this knowledge tophysics and engineering courses. Our results also indicate that although learners see similaritiesbetween problems encountered in physics and engineering differences in notation andassumptions appear to impede transfer.OverviewAll engineering majors are

linguistically in engineering colleges, where engineering students are frequentlyreferred to as “engineers” even in the earliest days following matriculation (in contrast, forexample, students of history are never referred to as “historians”). This progression towards aprofessional identity is predicated on an understanding of what engineers do, and acceptingcharacteristics associated with this identification.Acceptance of professional identity has been shown to occur earlier for engineering students thanfor non-engineering students [Ngambeki et al. 2006]. This may occur because the curricularcharacteristics of most engineering programs may foster a sense of isolation from the rest of theacademy. These characteristics include the large number of courses
