Abstract

Stress is a rampantly prevailing issue among undergraduate students, affecting both students' academic performance and general well-being. There is ample research available on the various sources of stress faced by students in campus life, including academic pressure, financial constraints, social expectations and cultural factors. Not sufficient research is found explicitly on the extrinsic factor of domestic violence and its impact on student’s on-campus experiences at public sector universities in Pakistan. This study aims to investigate the stressful repercussions of domestic violence on undergraduate students’ academic experiences at public sector universities in Pakistan. Through qualitative interviews and a comprehensive analysis of existing literature, this research intends to explore the effects of domestic violence on students' mental health and academic success. The study will also examine coping mechanisms employed by students to manage stress and suggest strategies for universities to create a supportive environment that promotes student well-being and academic achievement. By shedding light on the challenges faced by students in public sector universities in Pakistan, this research will contribute to the development of effective interventions and support systems to address stress and enhance the overall student experience.
