Abstract: Universities need to carry out Tracer Studies because they need feedback from alumni in their efforts to improve education systems and management. The implementation of a tracer study should ideally be carried out for university alumni in 1-3 years after graduation. Three benefits can be obtained from carrying out a tracking study, namely: 1) knowing stakeholder satisfaction, in this case, alumni, related to the learning experiences they experience as a tool for evaluating institutional performance; 2) obtaining relevant advice and input as a basis for institutional development, related to competitiveness, quality, and working experiences of alumni which can be used as an effort to seize opportunities and minimize various threats to future competition; 3) improve the relationship between graduates and their alma mater. The specific objective of this research is to find out how the results of the Tracer Study are relevant to the development needs of alumni in the world of work. This research method is quantitative research with a participatory approach. Data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions are used in this data analysis technique. The results for alumni of the Information Technology Education study program were 82% tracked. Of the 62 alumni targets, 51 alumni data was successfully collected.
