This study aims to examine the effect of the use of digital technology on the academic achievement of Pamulang University (UNPAM) graduate students in the odd semester of the 2024/2025 academic year. This study involved a population of active graduate students, with a research sample taken by simple random sampling of 32 respondents. The approach used in this study is a quantitative approach with an instrument in the form of an online questionnaire designed to measure the variables under study. The independent variable in this study is the frequency of using digital technology in the learning process, while the dependent variable is academic achievement. The results of this study indicate that there is a significant positive influence between the frequency of use of digital technology and the academic achievement of UNPAM postgraduate students. This finding indicates that the more often students use digital technology in learning, the higher their academic achievement. This research provides an important contribution to the development of  echnologybased learning strategies in higher education, as well as encouraging the integration of digital technology in the curriculum to improve student learning outcomes. The results showed that all items in the questionnaire were valid and reliable. In addition, there
is a significant positive relationship between the use of digital technology with learning motivation, material understanding, and student academic achievement. The implication of this study is that the integration of digital technology in learning can increase students' learning motivation, material understanding, and academic achievement. Thus, this research highlights the importance of utilizing digital technology as an effective and relevant learning tool in today's digital era.
