Emotional intelligence and pedagogical strategies play a crucial role in the academic performance of university students. This study explores the relationship between these variables and their impact on the educational field from a psychological perspective. Through a mixed approach, quantitative data obtained from questionnaires applied to 300 students from Latin American universities were analyzed, complemented by qualitative interviews with 30 teachers. The results reveal that students with higher levels of emotional intelligence and exposed to innovative pedagogical strategies have significantly higher academic performance. This article proposes recommendations for the implementation of comprehensive approaches that strengthen emotional intelligence and pedagogical practices in higher education.
