In recent years, entrepreneurship has become a topic of interest in Malaysia. The aim of this study was to identify the factors that affecting the entrepreneurial intention among engineering technology students. 554 engineering technology students of Universiti Kuala Lumpur were selected randomly to be the respondents. A set of questionnaire on Entrepreneurial Intention which consists of 54 questions was used for data collection. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The findings revealed that the factor that contributes the most to entrepreneurship intention is Locus of control, followed by Need of Achievement and Subjective Norms.
