Abstract

Due to the numerous requirements needed to comply by the engineering students on their terminal year on college, they experienced different symptoms and intensity of stress that may affect their level of satisfaction towards the student services of the university. The study focused on the differences of the respondents’ levels of experiencing physical, psychological and behavioural stresses when they are grouped according to gender, birth order, mode of residence and travel time going to the university. Student satisfaction towards basic student services of the university was also examined in the study. Results showed that headache, excess perspiration and fatigue were the most common symptoms of stressed being experienced by the students in terms of physical stress while negative thinking, tense and feeling of failure are the most common being encountered in terms of psychological stress and eating fast, making mistakes and restlessness in terms of behavioural stress. Middle Born Child students are experiencing significantly higher psychological and behavioural stress than First Born Child students. Stress is not a factor that influenced the level of satisfaction of the students towards the university services.
