Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of social emotional learning in STEM higher education. The authors discuss SEL competencies within this context and examine underlying issues, such as professional demands and emotional challenges within the learning environment that motivate SEL in higher education STEM contexts. Existing gaps and promising models relevant to bringing SEL into the university curriculum are also highlighted. Current approaches highlight teaching strategies and extracurricular activities that support the development of emotional intelligence, social skills, and empathy. The chapter also presents key recommendations for improving SEL-based practices in STEM higher education.
