In the field of engineering and technology, there is a significant gap in the study apprehension of teachers and this study aims to see the teachers apprehension and the self assurance they maintain to balance the work stress. Thus, the study sets out to investigate various causes of work stress among 615 engineering female faculty members of 15 engineering from different taluks of DakshinKannada district. The objectives of the study are to find out the significant difference and association among demographic variables of engineering female faculties on causes of stress. ‘t’ test and Chi-square test were used to analyse the data.
