The purpose of the research was to determine the correlation between the resilience capacity and the achievement of happiness, in students of Bachelor of Education from a private university in Colombia. The type of research of the present study was non-experimental, quantitative, with a cross-sectional or transectional design. The population of 371 students and a probabilistic sample of 179 learners. The following were the questions posed: What are the levels of resilience presented by undergraduate students at a private university in Colombia? What are the levels of happiness presented by undergraduate students at a private university in Colombia? What relationship exists between resilience capacity and the achievement of happiness in Bachelor of Education students at a private university in Colombia? The present study presented a non-experimental and quantitative type of research, through which the levels of resilience and happiness were measured to analyze and establish relationships between these two variables. Its design is transactional or cross-sectional, since data was collected in a single moment from different groups of students from the Bachelor of Early Childhood Education program of a private university in Colombia. The results outlined a standard deviation of both tests, which allowed to demonstrate that the data are not widely dispersed among themselves. Furthermore, the coefficient of skewness of both tests showed that most of the data were above the mean and that this was close to the maximum score of the two tests. In conclusion, it was shown that undergraduate students present high levels of resilience and happiness and that there is a bidirectional correlation between these two variables, that is, although there is a relationship, it was not identified that one influences the other, but rather that both they affect each other.
