Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competitive Activities on Engineering Students’ Entrepreneurial IntentionAbstract：An increased number of technological innovation and entrepreneurial competitiveactivities have been organized in engineering schools and beyond to raise students’entrepreneurial awareness and cultivate relevant skills. In this study, a mixed method researchbased on Planned Behavior Theory is being used to explore the outcomes of innovation andentrepreneurial competitions, in particular the influence of engaging in these competitiveactivities on engineering students’ entrepreneurial intention.

After becoming familiar with the scenario,and brainstorming ideas, students complete the project at home. They must create a diversion plan, makethe digs and mounds, raise the river to the appropriate flooding level, and see how well their diversion planworked.
