Rather than receiving education face-to-face on-campus, remote online education emerged as an alternative solution. If implemented properly though, online education can have its positive impact on the teaching and learning processes. Online education, however, may have its deficiencies, especially in terms of mental health. This paper is a follow-on study comparing students’perceptions towards remote online education versus their perceptions towards on-campus education as regards mental health specifically. Involving sixty-two engineering students at a private university in Dubai, where this study was implemented, the researchers utilized a questionnaire focusing on both online and on campus education models, which was conducted during the COVID-19 lockdown time and on-campus education following the lockdown period. Based on the study’s findings, most respondents were in favor of on-campus education, particularly in relation to its impact on student mental health.\u003Cbr>Keywords: COVID-19, online education, mental health, education models, on-campus education, graduate education |\n| --- | --- |\n| INTRODUCTION |  |\n\nThe COVID-19 pandemic caused some issues for both learners and instructors. For example, educational institutions all over the world had to close, shifting from the on-campus to the online mode of education. This shift is believed to have resulted in some issues amongst the most prominent of which was mental health, specifically in relation to students. Obviously, mental health is considered amongst the most crucial factors to consider whilst teaching as it may negatively impact students’ academic achievement (Al-Karaki et al., 2021; Suleymanova et al., 2022) .  \nAs mentioned above, the shift from face-to-face to online delivery of courses due to COVID-19 has resulted in several challenges, some of which are related to quality of technological facilities, some to quality of instructors’ IT training, some to quality of students’ IT skills, and some to quality of mental health conditions. While technological facilities, instructors’ training and students’ skills have been discussed by different scholars, not enough studies have been conducted to delineate students’ mental health conditions as caused by remote online education. Logically speaking, mental health has a significant role to play as far as quality education is concerned. A student who is depressed or who cannot engage affectively and actively in the teaching-learning process may not be ready to achieve high grades and maximize his/her potential.  \nInspired by the need to address mental health related issues when education is delivered online versus when on-campus, this paper is a follow-on study seeking to highlight students’ perceptions towards mental health related issues during remote online education and face-to-face on campus education. As such, this study is intended to compare higher education students’ mental health when university courses were offered remotely online and their mental health when university courses","cbCaicpGvbXHIITO","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicpGvbXHIITO","pdf",270496,11,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Related work","[{\"question\":\"How does the paper compare online and on-campus education regarding mental health?\",\"answer\":\"It compares students’ perceptions of remote online education versus on-campus education specifically in relation to mental health.\"},{\"question\":\"When and how was the study conducted?\",\"answer\":\"The study involved 62 engineering students and used a questionnaire during the COVID-19 lockdown and after the return to on-campus education.\"},{\"question\":\"What did the study find about students’ preferences?\",\"answer\":\"Most respondents favored on-campus education, particularly for its perceived impact on student mental health.\"}]","A comparative study for mental health challenges of students: Online versus on-campus education | PDF",1792090377,28,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":83},"ok",{"site_id":75,"language":74,"slug":84,"title":65,"keywords":85,"description":66,"schema_data":86,"social_meta":140,"head_meta":142,"extra_data":144,"updated_unix":145},"a-comparative-study-for-mental-health-challenges-of-students-online-versus-on-campus-education","",{"@graph":87,"@context":139},[88,102,122],{"@type":89,"itemListElement":90},"BreadcrumbList",[91,95,97,100],{"item":92,"name":93,"@type":94,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":96,"name":9,"@type":94,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":98,"name":40,"@type":94,"position":99},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":101,"name":65,"@type":94,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/a-comparative-study-for-mental-health-challenges-of-students-online-versus-on-campus-education/600277/",{"url":101,"name":65,"@type":103,"image":104,"author":109,"headline":65,"publisher":111,"fileFormat":114,"inLanguage":74,"description":66,"dateModified":115,"datePublished":116,"encodingFormat":114,"isAccessibleForFree":117,"interactionStatistic":118},"DigitalDocument",{"url":105,"@type":106,"width":107,"height":108},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/a-comparative-study-for-mental-health-challenges-of-students-online-versus-on-campus-education/600277.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":63,"@type":110},"Person",{"url":92,"name":112,"@type":113},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-04","2026-10-15",true,{"@type":119,"interactionType":120,"userInteractionCount":34},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":121},"ViewAction",{"@type":123,"mainEntity":124},"FAQPage",[125,131,135],{"name":126,"@type":127,"acceptedAnswer":128},"How does the paper compare online and on-campus education regarding mental health?","Question",{"text":129,"@type":130},"It compares students’ perceptions of remote online education versus on-campus education specifically in relation to mental health.","Answer",{"name":132,"@type":127,"acceptedAnswer":133},"When and how was the study conducted?",{"text":134,"@type":130},"The study involved 62 engineering students and used a questionnaire during the COVID-19 lockdown and after the return to on-campus education.",{"name":136,"@type":127,"acceptedAnswer":137},"What did the study find about students’ preferences?",{"text":138,"@type":130},"Most respondents favored on-campus education, particularly for its perceived impact on student mental health.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":101,"og:type":141,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":112,"og:description":66},"article",{"robots":143,"canonical":101},"index,follow",{"doc_id":61,"site_id":75},1792168139]
