System dynamic can play an important role in the education of engineers. On the one hand, students in engineering profit from system dynamics. On the other hand, the system dynamics methodology can be enhanced if we take advantage of the training in physics and mathematics received by the students. It is found that new forms of teaching physics (system physics) support system thinking in a unique way. Advanced courses in engineering disciplines can then build upon modeling and simulation taught early on the curriculum.
