Abstract: This study focuses on the important topic of developing psychological resilience in students. The aim of the research is to explore methods for enhancing the psychological resilience of engineering students under stressful conditions. The following methods were used in the study: psychological diagnostics, quantitative, qualitative, and comparative data analysis, and modeling. Diagnostic indicators of psychological resilience include psychological resourcefulness, resilience, and stress tolerance. The study found that engineering students mostly showed low to medium levels in the analyzed parameters. Based on empirical data, a developmental and corrective program was designed to enhance the psychological resilience of students. The program includes various methods such as relaxation, meditation, breathing exercises, reframing, spiritual practices, sports activities, anxiety-reducing mobile apps, motivational videos, and more. These methods were implemented in group training sessions and other forms of group work with technical students. The results of this study can be used in higher education institutions to support the development of students' psychological resilience. Future research will focus on creating recommendations for developing resilience in technical students under stressful conditions.
