The study is part of a qualitative approach, exploratory scope and type of phenomenological design. The participants were teachers and authorities of the four careers of the faculty. The techniques used were semi-structured interviews, focus group and non-participating observation. The results show that teachers have different approaches to the concept of happiness, some are framed in happiness as a goal, Western vision related to quality of life (goods, income and recognition), others, commune with happiness as a lasting process that is subject to the achievements pursued and how to obtain them.
