The results of the tracer study, the uptake of 'Growing with Character' campus alumni continues to increase from year to year.
Director of Student and Alumni Affairs (Mawal) Unesa, Muhamad Sholeh said that the level of absorption of graduates in the world of business and industry includes IKU-1, which is not only about getting a decent job, but also about graduates successfully continuing their studies or becoming entrepreneurs.

We can monitor and provide information on job opportunities so that alumni are absorbed in the world of work. "But in this case, alumni must be willing and cooperative in providing information about their jobs and salaries," said the lecturer at the Faculty of Education (FIP).
Apart from that, the Mawal Directorate actively collaborates with companies and schools to hold campus hiring. This is often the target of alumni who have just graduated.
"Apart from alumni careers, we also ensure alumni contribute by providing assistance to the alma mater through an endowment fund scheme, which is managed to help outstanding students from underprivileged families," he explained.
