| Summary: | The academic stressors together with the accumulation of different tensions of the daily life of students are causing stress, which is a major problem worldwide, especially in the university environment. The objective of this research was to determine if academic overloads are the academic stressors that most influence the stress levels of students within the university environment. The study is based on an empirical analytical approach, descriptive and cross-sectional, with which the questions were established to conduct the survey from the Academic Stress Inventory (IEA), using a Likert-type response scale with 5 options. The same was applied to students belonging to the careers of the Faculty of Industrial Engineering, being 60.3% women and 39.7% men. The results showed that the most influential academic stressors in student stress were academic overload with a percentage of 18.8%, lack of time to complete academic activities with 15.7% and partial it represented 9.3%, fatigue and fatigue being the physical manifestation most presented in the students, and the emotional manifestation would be the fear of not fulfilling the obligations. |
