This paper aims to identify the conceptions of engineering students on the concept of substance, in order to give a possible change of the same and their use in the teaching and learning of chemistry. The development of chemistry is closely related to chemical concepts and issues related to them. We sought to achieve the integration of curricula of different educational levels, putting engineering in a central position in the organization of this knowledge, since it, there is a need for a creative and practical application of a range of scientific principles closely linked to materials science. Keywords  - Education, Engineering, Chemistry Teaching, Concept of Substance; Conception of Science, Teaching-Learning Process.
