However, entrepreneurial venture is a challenging task especially for student. This study therefore is carried out to encourage student to be an entrepreneur by investigating the difference of mind behavior between students with and without entrepreneurial interest through functional Near-infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) technology. The study was conducted on thirty engineering students that got high score and low score during entrepreneurial opportunity recognition (EOR) survey. The result indicates that student with entrepreneurial interest has a high opportunity recognition during the moment of finding the entrepreneurial opportunities from stimulus given due to their high attention and working memory function.
