Well-Being Status of Students


Mental well-being is crucial for higher education students because it directly impacts their academic success, enabling them to handle stress, focus, and achieve their goals. It also fosters overall personal development, leading to higher self-esteem, better coping abilities, improved physical health, and stronger social connections.


Why is it necessary?

Academic Performance: Good mental health allows students to concentrate, solve problems, and stay motivated in their studies, ultimately leading to better academic achievement.

Reduced Risk of Disorders: A focus on mental well-being can help prevent the onset or worsening of mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression.

Positive Campus Environment: When students feel supported mentally, they are more likely to engage positively with peers and faculty, contributing to a healthy and inclusive learning community.
