    Abstract: This study investigated the impact of
educational qualification on work stress management
among academic administrators in South-East Nigeria.
The study adopted a descriptive survey research design.
The population of the study is 786 academic
administrators consisting of deans of 103 faculties, heads
of the entire 572 academic departments and 111 directors
of institutes/centres. The study sampled the whole
population for the study. The instrument for data
collection was a researcher-developed questionnaire titled
the Work Stress of Academic Administrators
Questionnaire (WSAAQ). Results showed that there is a
significant difference between the mean ratings of
academic administrators of universities concerning the
impact of work stress on job performance based on
educational qualification with Ph.D holders having a
higher mean rating. The state and federal governments
should employ more academic staff with a higher degree,
offer in-service training among others to ensure high
productivity of academic administrators.
