Abstract
Following the publication of the Organization for Economic Co‐operation and Development Report on the Mathematical Education of Engineers, the Council of Engineering Institutions and the Joint Mathematical Council of the United Kingdom set up a Committee on Mathematics in Engineering. This survey, carried out by the authors at the request of the Committee, is an analysis of the replies to a questionnaire sent out under the auspices of the Committee relating to the time spent on mathematics in engineering degree courses. Recommendations of the Committee, based on the analysis, are included at the end of the survey, which makes frequent comparisons between the United Kingdom and the OECD recommendations.
