We investigate non-radial pulsations of the CoRoT IR1 Be Star 102761769, with a projected stellar rotation estimated to be 120±15 km/s. If the star is a typical galactic Be star it rotates near the critical velocity. We propose an alternative scenario, where the star could be seen nearly equator-on rotating at a relatively moderate velocity say, ≈ 120 km/s and therefore the nonradial oscillations could be modeled. In order to identify the pulsation modes of the observed frequencies, we computed a set of models representative of CoRoT 102761769 by means of the adiabatic pulsation package FILOU. Results indicate that the two frequencies are compatible with a high-g mode as predicted by pulsation models of Be stars.
