Abstract

A major change that the COVID-19 pandemic has brought is the transition to online education. This study aims to investigate the impact that online education has had on the mental health of university students. The participants in the study were chosen through snowball sampling and were given a list of statements in a questionnaire. They had to rate the statements on a Likert Scale ranging from ‘Strongly Agree’ to ‘Strongly Disagree’. The results suggest that there has been a significant impact on the students’ mental health due to online education wherein they are experiencing mental fatigue, demotivation, disinterest, and even physical symptoms like headaches.
