Changes in Cognitive Preferences of Students as a Result of the Process of Studying Engineering Physics

Studies have been conducted in respecting the sensory preferences and learning styles of students with technical disciplines. It was Interesting to determine whether these students’ cognitive preferences are changing as a result of their participation in the learning process. To this end, research was conducted among students in engineering physics at the 1st, 2nd and 3rd year of studies. The results have been presented in this paper. They showed changes in sensory preferences and learning styles as a result of the learning process. This allows us to recognize that the intensive activities of the students to learn and acquire knowledge and skills lead to the emergence of certain cognitive preferences, needed because of the demands of the future profession and lifetime education.
