Technology has advanced quickly as a result of the establishment of the Industrial revolution 4.0, especially in the area of education. The existence of numerous educational electronic tools and applications that communicate with one another increases the flexibility and interactivity of the learning system. This study, which was undertaken at the Politeknik Hulu Terengganu, aimed to determine the relationship between students' knowledge and their readiness to face the challenges of the Industrial revolution 4.0 (IR 4.0). It can also create the newest teaching and learning strategies in accordance with technological advancements. A series of questionnaires served as the research tool for this descriptive study. Participants in this study included 241 individuals who completed their Diploma in Tourism Management, Diploma in Resort Management, Diploma in Recreational Tourism and Diploma in Accountancy programs at Politeknik Hulu Terengganu during semesters 1 through 5. Questionnaires are gathered, completed, and examined. Statistics were used in the data collection and analysis processes. The results indicate that, with a mean score of 3.52, the understanding and preparedness of Politeknik Hulu Terengganu students for the difficulties of IR 4.0 is still at a modest level. It is suggested that the polytechnic hold seminars and other events pertaining to IR 4.0 technology to expose students to this technology and raise their level of knowledge and preparedness for the upcoming era of industrial revolution 4.0. This will help to develop a generation of students who are not only proficient in using technology but also creative and innovative in their thinking.
