Description
Iurii Kuchyn, Kateryna Bielka, Lesya Lymar, and Livia Puljak survey medical PhD students studying under war in Ukraine in a 2024 paper. The full-scale invasion began in February 2022. Students at a Kyiv medical university learn under bombardment threat. The team probed performance, stress, and future plans.
The study mixed questionnaires with one-on-one interviews. One hundred eight students answered, and 53 sat for interviews. Nearly half called their education challenging in wartime. Air raid alarms or shelling disrupted classes for two thirds. Resumption after alarms was common among the students. Most still saw their careers in Ukraine as doctors. Half adapted well, while others struggled badly.
