The present study aims to identify the types of software used to solve ordinary differential equations in engineering education. The method used is the systematic review of empirical-type articles shown in Scopus, EBSCO, ProQuest and SciELO between 2017 and 2022. The result of the ordinary differential equations is presented in different engineering courses, which are solved using different software. It was concluded that Matlab is the most widely used software to solve engineering problems arising in education modeled by ordinary differential equations.
