Abstract: Graduate students face numerous challenges that affect their psychological well-being, including academic pressures, financial burdens, and career uncertainties. This study investigates the relationship between psychological well-being and career planning among graduate students. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study explores how effective career planning can mitigate stress and enhance well-being. Quantitative data were collected through a survey administered to 300 graduate students across various disciplines, while qualitative insights were obtained from in-depth interviews with 20 participants. The findings reveal a significant positive correlation between comprehensive career planning and higher levels of psychological well-being. Practical implications for academic institutions and career services are discussed.
