Mynavi Corporation conducted a lifestyle survey of university and graduate students scheduled to graduate in 2022, asking about "how student life changed with Corona".Number of valid responses: 3,938 (humanities boys: 621, science boys: 594, liberal arts girls: 1,871 people, science girls: 852)

 According to the survey, when asked how many days a week they attended school (excluding online), the overall average was 1.8 days.Compared to the 2021 days of graduating from 4.1 the previous year, half of that was not passed.Looking at the annual transition, it was significantly lower than the overall average (2014 to 2021 days) from 4.1 graduates who started the survey of this question to 4.4 graduates, and entry into the university to prevent the spread of new coronavirus infection. The ban and the shift to online lessons seem to have had an impact.In particular, the number of liberal arts students in the Kanto region was "0.6 days", which was less than one day.

 When asked what they are feeling "fun" now, "YouTube / Video viewing" was the most popular at 44.8% (up 6.9pt from the previous year), surpassing the top "Meet and talk" in the previous year. It became the first place.For girls, "meet and talk" was the most common at 1% (up 53.8pt from the previous year), followed by "YouTube / watching videos" at 2.8% (up 50.7pt from the previous year).It is thought that the chances of meeting friends directly at the stay home in Corona have decreased, and the number of students who find "fun" to spend at home, such as "YouTube, watching videos", has increased.The average daily usage time of smartphones was 12.5 minutes (1 hours 225.7 minutes 3 seconds), an increase of 45 minutes from the previous year.By gender, the average for boys was 42 minutes (26.9 hours 213.7 minutes 3 seconds, up 33 minutes from the previous year), and the average for girls was 42 minutes (21.6 hours 231.1 minutes 3 seconds, up 51 minutes from the previous year).

 The average monthly income from part-time jobs was 1 yen (down 3 yen from the previous year), a decrease of 3,559%.It can be seen that the corona sickness also affects the part-time job income of students.The average for liberal arts students was 5,914 yen (down 15.0 yen from the previous year), and that for science students was 3 yen (down 6,699 yen from the previous year).

 Currently, 52.1% of respondents answered "Countermeasures against infectious diseases / infectious diseases (* Until the previous year," Countermeasures against infectious diseases ")" for social issues of interest (up 42.6pt from the previous year).The percentage decreased year by year from 2016% of 23.8 graduates who started the survey of this question to 2020 graduates, but it increased sharply due to the epidemic of the new coronavirus infection. The second place was "support for declining birthrate and working women", and the third place was "global warming".
