Abstract

Visualization skills are very important in engineering field and they are positively correlated with achievement in engineering disciplines. With the enrolment of the first‐year students in engineering field, varying degrees of visualization skills development came from different backgrounds and experiences. A number of 357 engineering students from six faculties ranging from the first year to fourth year students of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), Skudai participated in this study. This quantitative study applies descriptive and inferential analytical methods, whereby a biographical data sheet and short version of visualization standard tests as the main instruments. The finding for this pilot study revealed that the engineering students of UTM possess moderately high visualization skills. Hence, the appropriate approach should be done in order to implement the right techniques for teaching engineering drawing in enhancing student’s visualization skills.
