Sulu State College, School of Agriculture Tracer Study of Graduates 2018- 2020

This study was conducted to determine the employability of the graduates of the Bachelor of Science in Agriculture (BSA) and Bachelor of Agricultural Technology (BAT) programs. The study further aimed to gather inputs about the BSA and BAT program that could be used to improve its quality education. The respondents were BSA and BAT graduates from 2018- 2020. Data collected were subjected to basic statistical tools such as frequency, percentage, proportions and means. Findings of the study indicate that 27.59% of the respondents under BSA program in 2018, 28.57% in 2019 while 0% in 2020 are all employed. Further, 80.00% under BAT are employed in 2018, 18.18% in 2019 and 58.33% in 2020. However, 72.41% from BSA and 20% from BAT program are unemployed in 2018. In 2019, it came out that the 71.43% from BSA and 81.82% from BAT program respondents are unemployed in 2019. Moreover, in 2020 three (3) BAT graduates are unemployed. While 41.67% in BAT graduates are unemployed in the year 2020. These are due to lack of applications and exposures as the main weakness. Also, some of our graduated students already have work, but they were relieved from their current work due to change of government which is the BARMM now. Consistently, the primary recommendations were to have more exposures and applications of the respondents. Furthermore, this finding was able to collect data from the graduate’s using questioners and thru online survey via messenger and face book page.
