Abstract
Envisioning new innovation strategy, it is wisely to fostering the technopreneurship area of education in public higher education. To be an entrpreneurial universities, it initiate to have a focus on undergraduate student starting from enrollment to graduation, which offered constant encouragement, training and support for their efforts to conceive and start up business enterprises with prototype they conceive. In this regards, this paper examines a factors required by the universities in bolstering the better prelude efforts towards the students in technopreneurship by indicating the competition, technology transfer and university policy. Sample of study was taken from undergraduate students at public university involving 146 students which already been taught the technopreneurship course at university. The descriptive statistics, multiple regression analysis and t-test were used to investigate the effect factors. In line with previous studies, the results reveal that competition, technology transfer and university policy statically significant in influencing the technopreneurship education at university. Surprisingly, the study shows that competition plays a crucial part in enhancing a better lookout in this innovation. The exposure from competition will drive them to be a creative person in nature and laterally develop an entrepreneurship skill in future. The result is useful for policy makers as well as university in considering the effect of these 3 factors in the eyes of undergraduates. Exploratory in nature, globalization and surge demand on technopreneurship thus evolve the trend in vibrant economic growth, industrialize and development context.

This study worked on case study survey method to gather a number of data from the undergraduates’ students from Mara University of Technology Kelantan Branch in Malaysia
The results are explained in details by using frequency distribution and reliability test supported with Pearson Correlation Analysis, Multicollinearity and Multiple Regression Analysis to test the relationship between dependant variable and independent variables [21] [22].The simple random sampling techniques were chosen as it encounters the requirements for this study [23] where 100% of them were undergraduates’ students from Mara University of Technology Kelantan Branch from batch 2016-2017
Summary
“Serving a clearly heterogeneous population with seemingly homogenous interventions appears faulty and this reality needs to inform pro-entrepreneurship initiatives in future”. [1]. Many public universities aiming for entrepreneurship education and research by evolving the transformation from tradisional university to more prudent and theoritically feasibility technological ideas and knowledge in generating properous venture. Theory on this relatively new phenomenon - technopreneurship, together with existing findings on technology transfer, competitions and university policy will be organized according to these three areas of technoprenuership research [5]. This study was conducted in order to explore the significant relationship via literatures upon 3 consequences technology transfer, competition and university policy to enhance creativity and innovation in technopreneurship education
