This study examines the role of emotional culture in contemporary higher education, framing its development as
a central objective for the current era. The analysis identifies current challenges within university communication
processes, highlighting difficulties in teacher–student interactions arising from gaps in emotional awareness among
academics, as well as students’ struggles to achieve emotional integration within academic communities. The paper
advocates for an educational paradigm grounded in empathetic communication, proposing strategies such as enhancing academics’ emotional competencies, integrating affective development into curricula, and promoting emotional
self-education. Thus, the investigative approach contributes to the development of a pedagogical vision that acknowledges the emotional dimension of communication, providing theoretical and practical guidelines for improving professional communication with students.
Keywords: communication, emotional culture, academic communication, communication based on emotional
