  <abstract>Stress is a condition that everyone goes through. Engineering interns experience  stress during their academic-to-professional environment transition. The study assessed perceived stress levels among engineering interns, the prevalence of coping mechanisms  adopted to overcome stress, and the relationship between perceived stress level and  coping mechanisms adopted by engineering interns. In a cross-sectional quantitative  study, 276 engineering intern’s students from different engineering faculties which  involved FTKA, FTKKP, FTKEE, FTKMA and FTKPM were assessed perceived stress  level using the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), and coping mechanisms using the Ways  of Coping Questionnaire (WOCQ). Spearman's correlation is used to analyse the  relationship between engineering interns' perceived stress levels and coping mechanism. The study found that, 70.3% of engineering interns reported moderate stress, 18.1% high  perceived stress and 11.6% low stress with differences found across demographic  variables like gender (p=0.036). Positive reappraisal was the most common coping  mechanisms (mean=13.87), while accepting responsibility was the least used coping  mechanisms (mean=7.99). Emotion-focused coping was commonly used by engineering  interns to cope with stress (mean=62.73), than problem-focused coping (mean=29.62).  The study reported no significant difference in coping mechanisms between gender and  faculty with p-value of 0.669 and 0.221 respectively. Spearman’s correlation analysis indicated a weak positive correlation between perceived stress levels and coping  mechanisms (r=0.261, p=0.000). As the level of stress increase, engineering interns tend  to look for coping mechanisms. Coping mechanisms adopted by engineering interns are  also significantly correlated with perceived stress levels. This study suggests using stress  management programs to promote stress knowledge and management.</abstract>
