Tracer study information system for higher education

Abstract

A good education system has a looping system in which the responsibility of higher education for students does not end at graduation but also related to the sustainability of graduates careers so that they are better prepared to work in the community. The purpose of this study is to develop a one-door Tracer Study Information System managed by universities to improve the quality of graduates through improving the education process. The results of the tracer study as feedback are expected to be an input for the education system, curriculum, student activity direction, and Universitas Negeri Jakarta (UNJ) policies which include the development of student hard skills, soft skills, and life skills. A reliable tracer study system is due to the availability of adequate resources, namely information systems, survey teams, publications, also the reward and punishment given to respondents. The prototype was developed using the waterfall method which went through several stages specifically analysis, design, implementation, testing and maintenance. The prototype was tested using black box testing. Based on the functional test, it is known that all functions of the system prototype are running according to plan.
