The COVID-19 pandemic stroke globally in 2020, forcing governments to close institutions. Students in the Czech Republic were sent home, having only a few weeks of non-online education in the year 2020, continuing online also in 2021. Research around the globe has shown impacts on students and their studying situation, their mental state and health. This paper wants to present the research on perceptions of current students concerning these topics, focusing mainly on the students’ education level and the mental health. An online survey conducted with students from the Faculty of Business and Management, Brno University of Technology, was assessed for significant statistic relationships with a return rate of approximately 15%. It was assumed that students would show significant inclination to mental health issues, showing non-confidence in study. Statistical analysis confirmed significant relations on the p<0.05 level for undergraduate students’ health issues paired with a lack of confidence in the further study success and in their further career. Undergraduate students that were in transition during COVID-19 lockdowns from school to university showed these characteristics. Hence, this paper concludes that the These students, being educated to be future managers, lack additional support for these students. If this support would not be provided, these students would potentially take their lack of confidence and mental health issues with them to management positions, not being able to fill the positions as future managers, while countries lose a whole generation of highly-skilled people.
