摘要：

This study was to investigate gender differences in creativity among engineering students in college in Korea. The sample group consisted of 352 engineering students. 80.6% were males and 19.4% were females. They were administered self-report measures of domain general and domain specific view of creativity. The engineering creativity test was developed by Kang and Yoon(2015) based on the domain specific view of creativity. The test consists of four sub-factors such as creative attitude, research of knowledge, interests in engineering, and team work ability. The domain general creativity test consists of three sub-factors. The results showed that women were less creative than men. The results of this study also indicated that the undergraduate engineering education needs to provide more female-friendly curriculum for women in engineering to develop their creativity.
