This article examines the academic burnout among university students, analyzing its causes, effects, and potential countermeasures. Academic burnout is described as a state of emotional exhaustion, loss of interest in studies, and reduced academic engagement, often resulting from prolonged academic stress, intense workloads, and high-performance expectations. The study emphasizes that burnout develops gradually when students struggle to balance academic responsibilities with personal, social, and financial demands. The article also highlights strategies to prevent or reduce academic burnout, emphasizing interactive teaching methods, development of academic self-efficacy, and practical approaches such as time management, adequate rest, social support, coping strategies, and maintaining work-life balance.
