The present paper describes a student evaluation of Inter-Departmental core curriculum “Problem-Based Learning (PBL) ” in the Faculty of Engineering at Utsunomiya University. The PBL is implemented to the first-grade students as an introductory engineering education, where student teams of four or five people assigned inter-departmentally attempt to solve the given problems. In order to verify effectiveness of the curriculum, some questionnaire surveys have been carried out for eight years to the students, and the results were statistically analyzed using a cluster analysis. As a result, 50-60% students evaluated the curriculum as “Good” . Effectiveness of the curriculum are confirmed as a creativity education.
