Summary/Abstract: Universities have swiftly transitioned to distance learning during the corona pandemic, and this quick change has had negative impacts on students, including their lack of appropriate communication skills. Naturally, this could negatively impact their ability to communicate effectively in their future careers. The current paper aimed to identify the extent to which female students possessed communication skills during the corona pandemic period from the perspective of 367 faculty members. The researcher used the descriptive analytical survey method. The findings of the study demonstrate those female students possessed a high level of communication skills (negotiation, speaking skills and dialogue) and a medium level of persuasion, influence and listening skills. There were no statistically significant differences at the level (a ≤ 0.05) attributed to the gender variable.
