Thus, the Analytic Network Process (ANP) has been used in deciding the factor that ignites creativity. However, there is uncertainty and vagueness existing in the judgment of students' need and expectations. Fuzzy ANP approach is used to determine a way in improving the creativity of the students in introductory engineering course. ANP equipped with fuzzy logic helps in overcoming the impreciseness in the preferences. The findings will help the instructor to improve and modify the delivery of the course to meet the course objectives.
