Team-Based Learning (TBL) is a small-group-based active learning-teaching strategy which supports the development of essential competencies while controlling course content. In this paper a TBL experience ap plied to the Fluid Mechanics course’ viscosity module of the second year of a chem ical engineering degree, during the 1st semester of 2021/22 academic year, is pre sented. The results were obtained based on a questionnaire answered by 57 of 65 enrolled students. The competencies acquired with TBL methodology identified by students were “Team Work”, “Autonomous work”, “Discussion” and “Communi cation”. On the other side, from the teacher’s point of view, this experience was very gratifying and is to be continued and extended to other course modules. Besides these preliminary results they already show positive tendency in TBL application to enhance engineering students’ competencies.engTeam-Based Learning (TBL)Active learningEngineering educationStudent’s competenciesconference object10.1007/978-981-99-0942-1_13
