AUTHOR-SUPPLIED ABSTRACT: Abstract: This quantitative research focuses on understanding stress among Higher Educators in Germany and their corresponding motivations/rewards. The study aims to benefit universities, professors, and students by providing insights into the stress levels and motivations of Higher Educators. The research begins with a literature review on stress, including its definition, impact, and specifically in the context of Higher Education. Motivation will also be explored to understand how different employees find motivation in their job-related tasks. The review encompasses international and German-specific literature on stress and education systems. Data will be collected through an online survey distributed to professors in German universities. The collected data will be analyzed using SPSS to identify any notable characteristics related to stress and motivation among different demographic groups in the sample. The results will be discussed in relation to the reviewed literature. In conclusion, this research provides a comprehensive understanding of stress and motivation among Higher Educators in Germany. The findings contribute to the existing literature, enabling universities to make informed policies, helping professors understand stress and motivation in their field, and assisting students in supporting their professors' job satisfaction and overall teaching quality.
