Résumé

This research investigates the implementation of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) in higher education. It aims to examine its integration in tertiary education, focusing on its role in developing soft skills and intrapersonal competencies among university students. This study is conducted in an exploratory manner, using an online survey with a sample of 31 Algerian EFL students from the Teacher Training School of Bouzareah. The results display that, although SEL is implicitly integrated into higher education, it can be successfully applied, since it promotes students’ Social Emotional Competencies (SEC), such as responsible decision-making, self-awareness, autonomy, resilience, and empathy. The study recommends SEL practices for higher education teachers and students.
