Abstract
Graduating students are challenged with various academic and professional goals in the onboarding activities at EVSU Tanauan Campus. These experiences contribute to the graduates’ level of knowledge, skills, and attitudes toward employment opportunities. This study aims to explore the lived experiences of the information technology students in EVSU Tanauan Campus in their final year and seeks to identify important issues and challenges that they encountered. A phenomenological research design was employed utilizing semi-structured in-depth interviews with graduating students to capture their lived experiences. This study will anchor on Bandura’s social learning theory which states that people can overcome difficulties through developing coping strategies and self-efficacy development. The study will utilize thematic coding analysis using Georgi methods and Colaizzi’s last step to confirm data analysis. The findings of the study may give educators assistance in understanding how it was being a graduating information technology student and will give information to enhance support services programs for graduating students.
