Abstract

Academic pressure has become a big part of university life, impacting how students feel both academically and mentally. This research explores the link between mental health and academic pressure among university students across different fields of study. It identifies key factors contributing to this pressure and looks at how they connect to issues like stress, anxiety, and depression, using a quantitative approach. The study also checks if things like gender and area of study affect this relationship. By focusing on what students actually experience, this research aims to provide insights that can help universities create more supportive and healthier learning environments.
