The difference between Neuroscience Business School and other business schools is that we prepare our students to adapt to global changes in the business ecosystem.

Each and every one of our programs includes Brain Training in Mental Toughness, which – among other activities – contains Mindfulness practices, which helps our students to increase their performance, productivity and creativity.

As future employment is the objective of any educational system, at NBS we offer:

• Updated programs adapted to the needs of the market.
• “Masterclasses on how to get a job.
• Direct contact with international companies and recommendations. 
• Job placement and internship service.
• Mentoring sessions.

Although we are obliged to stress that professional success also depends on the student: their skills, desire and attitude to get a job.

While it is true that the new technological advances of the digital era help us in areas such as work, study, or personal relationships, their unbalanced use can also generate problems that affect health, performance, and the achievement of results. Thus, harmful stress and psychosomatic disorders, decreased attention span, concentration, memorization, information retention, and recall.

Brain Training includes “Mental Toughness” practices used, among others, by NASA, the Olympic Committees of the countries that have won the most gold and silver medals, the elite corps of the armies that have to face adversities and threats, and the main companies included in the “Fortune 500”.

he objective of Brain Training is to maintain and develop cognitive and affective skills (Emotional Intelligence) to achieve high performance.
Practices aimed at relaxing the body and mind to regulate stress and enhance resilience, improve health, enhance attention, memory, and, optimize relationships, critical thinking, imagination, visualization, and creativity.

Online education

In this day and age it is impossible to imagine our world without online education. Neuroscience Business School offers online courses very similar to offline courses, the only difference is that our students do not have to travel to take the course. 

Neuroscience Business School has created a system of streaming classes aimed at making our students feel as if they were in a face-to-face class:

• Combination of theory & practice.
• Personalised contact with each student.
• Deadlines.
• Final work.
• Fluid participation in classes with deep contact with the teacher.
• International students: we have students from all over the world.
• International network.
• Face-to-face exams, either in Barcelona or in other collaborating centres.

NBS offers Master’s programs, MBAs, higher degrees and courses in Spanish and English, subsidized for companies, online and/or face-to-face.

All our programs include Brain Training in Mental Toughness, which helps our students increase their performance, productivity and creativity.

We use an effective cutting-edge methodology derived from advances in Neuroeducation research.

Our unique program scheme:

THEORY (30%) + PRACTICE (50%) + BRAIN TRAINING (20%) = SUCCESS IN THE 21ST CENTURY!

PERSONALISED EDUCATION FOR EACH STUDENT.

For us it is key that all students:

• Receive constant feedback from teachers to know if what is being done is appropriate and relevant, or not. 
• Participate and can contribute different and valuable points of view and opinions according to their diversity: races, ages, religions, origins, gender and professions. So that teaching and learning is enriched by their contributions.
• INNOVATION

The education system changes so fast, what you learned a year ago may no longer carry weight, or may even be obsolete. That’s why, at NBS, we adapt our programs semester by semester.

 All our courses mean that you can always update your knowledge.

FLEXIBILITY

Understanding that most of our students are working or pursuing other studies, we have designed our online programes with recorded classes, which you can comfortably watch at flexible times. 

However, we are quite demanding in terms of homework and deadlines, so that our students can fully achieve their educational objectives.

FUTURE EMPLOYMENT & INTERNSHIPS 

Future employment is the goal of any business education. Therefore we support our students by offering:

• Updated programs adapted to the needs of the market.
• “Masterclasses on how to get a job.
• Direct contact with international companies and recommendations. 
• Job placement and internship service.
• Tutoring sessions. 

Although we must stress that professional success also depends on the student: their skills, desire and attitude to get a job.

IN SHORT, NEUROSCIENCE BUSINESS SCHOOL IS A COMMUNITY WHERE YOU CAN:

• Get an education for the 21st century.
• Achieve the neuroscience knowledge to be successful Entrepreneurs & Leaders.
• Learn to make effective decisions.

Without a doubt, for all students, a key aspect for success in their careers is the creation of exchange networks that allow them to share ideas with people of similar interests, with different points of view and ideas. 

In creating our online programmes and classes, we do not forget the importance of expanding the network of contacts and working in diverse teams. We reinforce this with other complementary activities such as video forums, conferences and company visits.

We encourage all our students not to be passive participants. This is the time to build and expand your own international network.
