The aim of the present study was to compare the emotional intelligence between boys and girls ofB.Ed. Special Education students. The incidental purposive sampling techniques will be used to the selection of*the subjects in this research work. In all there will be lOOStudents of Jaipur city, Rajasthan, in which 50 boys and 50 girls were selected. All students are graduate or postgraduate. Emotional Intelligence Scale was developed by Hyde, Pethe, and Dhar was used. Results revealed that there is significant difference between emotional intelligence ofB.Ed. Special Education Students boys and girls. But girls ofB.Ed. Special Education students have better level of emotional intelligence than boys ofB.Ed. Special Education students. When we compare the different dimension of emotional intelligence girls have better self-awareness, empathy, managing relations, integrity, self-development and altruistic behavior than boys. But on other hand on the dimension of emotional intelligence in self-motivation, emotional stability, value orientation and commitment dimension both boys and girls have similar level of emotional intelligence. The likely reason for this result may be girls have more tolerance and patience as compared to male who can think about their emotions and take decisions, because of biological difference which exists between boys and girls.

The incidental purposive sampling techniques will be used to the selection of*the subjects in this research work. In all there will be lOOStudents of Jaipur city, Rajasthan, in which 50 boys and 50 girls were selected. All students are graduate or postgraduate.

When we compare the different dimension of emotional intelligence girls have better self-awareness, empathy, managing relations, integrity, self-development and altruistic behavior than boys. But on other hand on the dimension of emotional intelligence in self-motivation, emotional stability, value orientation and commitment dimension both boys and girls have similar level of emotional intelligence.
