Conclusion
anxiety
The eight-week mindfulness-based training program provided to engineering graduate student participants was well-received and produced measurable positive impacts on emotional well-being. The improvements in emotional health were highly meaningful for a graduate student sample, where high levels of stress and anxiety are commonly reported. Furthermore, the positive implications for mindfulness and research satisfaction are highly encouraging. These findings motivate broader utilization of mindfulness-based contemplative training to enhance both the personal and professional lives of engineering graduate students.
