The paper outlines some ideas on teaching geometry at technical faculties as well as various possibilities and advantages of the application of Mathematica in teaching. A few examples demonstrate the use of Mathematica visualizations in teaching geometry at the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Zagreb. These examples are extracts from lectures, internet pages and students' projects on algebraic ruled surfaces and on Gaussian and mean curvature.
