The study focused on exploring the role of teachers' professionalism in reducing aggression and fostering resilience among university students. The qualitative research design was followed to conduct this study. The sample of 15 students of MPhil and PhD (Edu) for semi-structured interviews was selected employing purposive sampling. A self-structured interview protocol was used for the collection of data. Qualitative data were analyzed through thematic analysis. The study revealed that particular teacher behaviors and practices can mitigate aggression and promote resilience among students. University teachers should formulate instructional strategies to boost student resilience, engage learners in problem-solving and project-based learning, and offer guidance and counseling services to address violent conduct of students.
