Abstract

Este estudio indaga cómo los estudiantes universitarios reaccionan a un alto nivel de estrés, como el ocurrido tras el abrupto retorno a las aulas pospandemia, y qué pueden hacer las instituciones educativas para reducirlo. Se utilizó una encuesta cualitativa en línea, la cual se aplicó a 51 estudiantes de Ingeniería Ambiental. Los resultados muestran que los estudiantes recurren principalmente a actividades tranquilas y personales, como escuchar música; por ello, se debe evitar sobrecargas de trabajo y recibir apoyo psicológico. Se concluye que es factible que las instituciones educativas brinden el apoyo necesario para reducir el estrés estudiantil.
