Paper Abstract:	Research catalyzes positive change for the economic development of a country which will lead to investments and job opportunities, consequently leading to a high Gross National Product. In recent year’s higher education bodies has been emphasizing on embedding research activities within the undergraduate teaching activities leading to better students employability. Current education system transforms its teaching and learning quality using e-learning strategies. Also, past research assessed role of social capital on knowledge sharing behavior in virtual environment; scant research assessed the moderation of positive emotions and gender for (1) higher education sector and (2) developing countries. And, the success of such a statement has not been properly documented in the past research. As the result, the aim of this study is to empirically assess the role of Social Capital Theory on Knowledge sharing, when moderated by positive emotions. This deductive research’s literature review identified research gaps; to form research questions and a model with three hypotheses. Multi-correlation analysis was performed using SPSS to test hypotheses thru, data collected from 334 participants: a sample size above required threshold, to generalize population of higher education undergraduate business students of a private university in Bahrain. Findings supported all hypotheses, indicating positive moderation between social capital and knowledge sharing, when students e-learn on Moodle.
