Analysis: The completion rate data for the Bachelor of Science in Industrial Technology major in Electrical Technology show varying levels of student completion among the entry cohorts from 2018 to 2022. The highest completion rate was recorded for the 2022 entry cohort, with 67 out of 89 students completing the academic requirements by 2026, equivalent to 75.28%. This was closely followed by the 2019 entry cohort, which achieved a completion rate of 75.25%, with 76 out of 101 students completing the program requirements.

The 2018 entry cohort recorded a completion rate of 53.06%, with 52 out of 98 students completing the academic requirements. The 2021 entry cohort showed a completion rate of 59.20%, with 74 out of 125 students completing the program. Meanwhile, the 2020 entry cohort had the lowest completion rate at 30.49%, with only 25 out of 82 students completing the academic requirements. This lower rate may be associated with academic, personal, financial, or other challenges that affected students during their period of study.

The 2023 entry cohort is expected to complete the program in 2027; therefore, completion data are not yet available. Overall, the data show that while completion rates have improved for the more recent cohorts, the program should continue strengthening academic advising, student monitoring, remediation, financial support referrals, and retention interventions to help more students complete their academic requirements within the expected program duration.
