The research tool was an anonymous questionnaire, the Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (INTE) and The Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS). Results: In stressful situations, future nurses present the least of the task-oriented coping style, students of emergency medicine react least emotionally to stressful situations, and future doctors have the lowest rating for the avoidance-oriented coping style. Conclusions: Half of the surveyed students are characterized by a high level of emotional intelligence, slightly fewer subjects have an average level. Women are characterized by higher emotional intelligence; the highest level of emotional intelligence is found in students of emergency medicine and medical analytics. In stressful situations, women present mainly an emotional attitude, while men present a task-oriented coping style. Stress management training is recommended, especially in the female population.
