Abstract
Este trabajo teórico investigativo tiene por objeto profundizar sobre el estrés académico en universitarios y sus efectos sobre salud mental, tomando como insumo las publicaciones científicas sobre el tema; para ello se sirve de otros estudios realizando un análisis conceptual y de los resultados obtenidos por tales investigaciones sobre el estrés académico, los diversos tipos de estresores académicos, la sintomatología y las habilidades que se tienen para enfrentar la problemática. Es claro que el estrés académico, así como el laboral repercute necesariamente en los estados psicológicos de la población. Por ello se hace un estudio documental cualitativo, que tenga por objeto indagar y discutir sobre el estrés académico, los principales estresores y tipificar las habilidades que se tienen para enfrentar la problemática del estrés. Se espera que los resultados arrojen luces importantes afines a la psicología, para que los universitarios, principalmente quienes estén culminando el ciclo académico profesional, puedan sobrellevar mejor el estrés, transformando los elementos negativos en resultados positivos al afrontar adecuadamente los estresores identificados. En tal sentido el trabajo concluye que el estrés es producto de la sobrecarga de actividades y responsabilidades universitarias, los estudiantes próximos a graduarse exteriorizan e interiorizan altos niveles de estrés y ansiedad debido a la sobrecarga y el trabajo de grado. Se resalta la importancia de implementar talleres para controlar el estrés e impactar positivamente la salud integral de los estudiantes en todos los aspectos: físicos, psicológicos y emocionales.

For this reason, a qualitative documentary study is carried out with the aim of investigating and discussing academic stress, the main stressors and typifying the skills that people have to face the problem of stress. It is expected that the results will shed important light related to psychology, so that university students, mainly those who are completing the professional academic cycle, can better cope with stress, transforming the negative elements into positive results by adequately addressing the identified stressors. In this sense, the work concludes that stress is a product of the overload of university activities and responsibilities, students close to graduation externalize and internalize high levels of stress and anxiety due to the overload and the degree work. The importance of implementing workshops to control stress and positively impact the integral health of students in all aspects: physical, psychological and emotional, is highlighted.
