A method and system is provided for pre-processing of an electroencephalography (EEG) signal for cognitive load measurement. The present application provides a method and system for pre-processing of electroencephalography signal for cognitive load measurement of a user, comprises of capturing the electroencephalography signal from the head of the user, detecting the plurality of system artifacts in the captured electroencephalography signal, detecting and removing noisy window from the captured electroencephalography signal, detecting an eye blink region and filtering out said detected eye blink region from the captured electroencephalography signal, utilizing the filtered electroencephalography signal for measuring the cognitive load of the user and subsequently computing different levels of mental workloads on the user using variation of spatial distribution of frontal scalp EEG electrodes for measured cognitive load.
