The psychological skills needed by students cannot be ignored as we demand more of them in University studies.Learning an employability skill is important, but it is also important to be able to handle the pressure ofacademics, assignments, deadlines, examinations, and all the other stressors that are now closely related to astudent’s life. Students are much more likely to be happy and remain happy for a longer period of time if theycan deal with stressors and recover swiftly from stressors. The ability and capacity to recover quickly from asetback and handle stress is known as Resilience.Studies have shown that positive emotions increase resilience, which in turn increases feelings of happiness andfulfillment. Happiness has now become a part of the global policy agenda. In 2011, the United Nations GeneralAssembly recognized happiness as a fundamental human goal in a Resolution entitled ‘Happiness: towards aholistic approach to development’. According to the 2015 World Happiness Report, schools that prioritizelearner wellbeing have the potential to be more effective, with better learning outcomes and greaterachievements in learners’ lives.With this background, the purpose of this study was to ascertain correlation between resilience and happinessamong college students. The data suggests that there is a significant positive correlation between the resilienceand happiness levels of college students which is a positive indicator. If happiness is boosted, it has implicationson resilience too.The researchers suggest a path that can be followed for positive transformation. The Happiness Curriculum hasbeen already introduced and is slowly but steadily finding its roots in school curriculum. However, the need ofthe hour is to continue it through the college curriculum as well. The happiness curriculum looks to create astimulating environment for learners in schools and if taken up to higher education, will help students to reflectbetter, gain insight into their thoughts and feelings, and bring about change in behavior accordingly.
