description The Industrial Revolution (IR) 4.0 is now in the world's attention. Initially, IR 4.0 was placed inside manufacturing industry. As time goes by, the implementation of IR 4.0 has been widespread among the various types of industries including education. Therefore, it is important for students to acquire this knowledge as they wish will be severely affected from today onwards. The purpose of this paper is to identify the student perception among Operation Management students toward IR 4.0, and their focus is on students at Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM). The questionnaires are categorized into of perception and respond/react from operation management student and the data collected were analysed using the Statistical Packages for Social Science (SPSS). This questionnaire form will be distributed to 200 Operation Management students for the results of this study. The findings show that most of students are aware and have heard about IR 4.0 but they are less knowledgeable about that. The majority of them have neutral or incapable of forming concrete perceptions on various aspects of IR 4.0 and this evidenced by the consistent number of mean results for all perceptual variables tested in the questionnaire. In terms of behaviour towards IR 4.0, the results indicate that most students are less exposed to IR 4.0 but they are keen to know more about it, especially during their studies. Finally, suggestions for improving awareness and change of perception about IR 4.0 among students are made.
