Medical students enrolled in medical schools around the nation today are a vital part of continuing to provide quality health care services to patients. The success of these students in their educational endeavors is important to the health and well-being of future patients that they will serve. These students first become exposed to immense stress while in medical school, which will follow them into their residencies and into their medical practices. This will impact patient care and the quality of care for years to come. This study examines stressors experienced by medical students who are in their second year of medical education. This study also explores which coping strategies for managing stress were utilized by medical students. Finally, this study investigates which coping strategies succeeded for students and if those strategies were provided by their educational institution or were provided outside of the medical education environment. / A Dissertation submitted to the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education. / Spring Semester 2019. / March 27, 2019. / burnout, decision making, medical education, medical students, quality of life, stress / Includes bibliographical references. / Linda Schrader, Professor Co-Directing Dissertation; Patrice Iatrola, Professor Co-Directing Dissertation; Elizabeth Jakubowoski, University Representative; Toby Park, Committee Member; Robert A.
