Abstract

The virtuality imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the redesign of training activities and experiences to digital platforms. This study aims to analyze the experiences of university obstetrics during the period of the COVID-19 pandemic. The approach is qualitative with a phenomenological design. Two discussion groups were held with 14 female obstetrics students from three public universities in Lima, Ica, and Tacna; and two private universities in Arequipa and Cusco. The aspects mentioned by the university students are related to academic uncertainty, being overwhelmed by confinement, concern for the economic future, increased workload, boredom due to the cessation of face-to-face classes, fatigue, and difficulties in carrying out work remotely.
