RUBIO-TINAJERO, Sarahi  and  ZAPATA-CONTRERAS, Jazmín. COVID-19 impact on UAT postgraduate students. Rev. mex. fitopatol [online]. 2021, vol.39, n.spe, pp.446-451.  Epub Nov 30, 2021. ISSN 2007-8080.  https://doi.org/10.18781/r.mex.fit.2021-24.

The UAT postgraduate students have had diverse academic and research problems due to the COVID-19 contingency. However, their commitment to comply with requirements is latent, while quickly adapting to the health crisis. The in-person restrictions have forced them to develop self-taught abilities, to look for solutions to research problems and to always stay updated in the use of digital technologies. Remote lessons have been a challenge for students and teachers due to technical problems that limit the efficiency of the teaching-learning process. Information is not passed onto the students and the objectives of the courses are only achieved halfway. Universities and the CONACYT have kept the graduation requirements in due time and form. However, requirements should be modified to be consistent with the severe limitations imposed by remote work, external to institutions. Grant holders have been the most affected.
