AB  - The era of education transformation in the teaching of engineering mathematics aims to be consistent
with the revolution of technology. Thus, the teaching methods in engineering mathematics needs to be aligned
with this revolution. The objective of this study is to develop engineering mathematics lab module with
Mathematica. Engineering Mathematics lab module comprises subjects such as Vector Calculus, Linear Algebra
and differential equation. A preliminary test was conducted for Vector Calculus, Linear Algebra and differential
equation subjects. Each of the test results was analyzed using Rasch Model. Difficult course outcomes from
each test was identified as the topic of lab module. A total of 8 course outcomes were identified as the topics
for the lab module. Questions were gathered for each topic and the mathematica solutions were derived. All the
questions and mathematica solutions were verified by three experts. The course outcome for the third lab is to
be able to apply green’s theorem, stoke’s theorem and gauss’s theorem in solving engineering problems. Nine
questions were developed based on the application level of bloom taxonomy. Mathematica captures student’s
interest in learning Engineering Mathematics as it is less time-consuming in solving mathematical problems.
