Objectives are to describe the process of designing a case of physics for engineering, its use with the case method. For this, its genesis, scope, types of cases, and attached methods were addressed. The methods for the design were: three cases readed, expert reports reviewed, draft of the case written and the SRVE model implemented in 4 steps: structure, review, validation, evaluation. Background, situation, prospects as structure; validation addressed dimensions of clarity, coherence, relevance, sufficiency; Aiken statistical implemented to validate instruments. The evaluation involved data triangulation and a table of categories by estates. The results indicate that agents evaluated the case with optimal levels of relevance and sufficiency; agreed with acceptable assessments that the case is not 100% coherent with a linear but with a complex reality. As conclusions, the method application is limited in engineering, the existence of designed cases also, implement the model to improve learning is necessary.
