Abstract
In the engineering education, it is very difficult that creativity is cultivated to the students. A mean for the creativity training seems to be that the students experience the engineering technology of various fields. We consider the creativity in the students is fostered from various experiences. We have regarded that production and the race entry of the racing solar car were incorporated in the field of the engineering education as being the aid for raising the creativity, and then, the educational activity has been continued. Through the activity, the students not only acquired the engineering knowledge and experienced the technology of various field but also developed the engineer mind required for “making the thing”. From the results obtained here, we expect that the technical creativity will be build up in the students.
