Post- COVID19 Conclusion Regarding the Education in a Technical University in Romania. How Does Stress Influence the Educational Process

A survey lasing for about 20 months is presented regarding the e-learning implemented during the COVID19 crisis in the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania. The study was made on undergraduates in years 1–4 of study and master students, in engineering, where the authors are teaching. The conclusions show that students had different opinions, the most stressed were the students in years 1–2 of study, those in years 3–4 had an average percent of stress, while the master students showed more maturity and experience. Also as an unexpected conclusion, it would be beneficial for the students that the educational structure should change into a mixed onsite-online, divided into first two years of study and years 3–4 of study and a different structure for the master students. At present, all students learn in the same study formations and are all treated equally (curricula, teaching material), independently of the year of study.
