At BSBI, student wellbeing is an important part of the learning experience. Our Student Welfare team offers a range of services designed to support our students’ wellbeing, encourage personal development and help them feel connected throughout their studies.
Available both online and in-presence across BSBI campuses, our welfare services provide flexible access to professional guidance, wellbeing resources and community initiatives wherever students are studying. In addition, selected in-person programmes are available at our Berlin campus.
Whether students are looking to develop healthy habits, connect with the BSBI community or access confidential support, our Student Welfare team is here to help.
Throughout the academic year, we organise engaging awareness campaigns that promote healthy habits, encourage meaningful conversations and foster a supportive campus community.
Campaigns focus on topics that are relevant to student life, including:
The Being Well Microcredential is a self-paced online course designed to help students explore the key pillars of wellbeing.
Through interactive learning and personal reflection, students can build practical wellbeing skills while progressing at their own pace. Upon completing each pillar, students receive a digital badge that can be added to their professional profiles.
Mindful Monday offers students the opportunity to begin each week with a 15-minute mindfulness session, available both online and on campus.
These guided sessions encourage students to pause, focus on the present moment and develop habits that support overall wellbeing.
When additional support is needed, students can access Safe Space Counselling—a confidential service that provides guidance for managing stress, personal challenges and wellbeing concerns.
Appointments are available both online and on campus, with counselling offered in English and Spanish.
What’s Your Story is a monthly community gathering where students can share experiences, exchange advice and connect with others in a welcoming and supportive environment.
Whether discussing life as an international student, adjusting to a new city or navigating new experiences, these sessions encourage open conversations and remind students that they are not alone.
Students are welcome to participate in the discussion, listen to others or simply spend time with the community.
Alongside the services available across all BSBI campuses, students at our largest campus in Berlin can also benefit from the following in-person initiatives.
Designed for new Bachelor’s students, these workshops provide practical tools to help students organise their studies, manage stress effectively and develop financial awareness as they begin university life.
The Buddy Program connects new students with experienced peers who can offer practical guidance during their transition to life at BSBI and in Berlin.
Buddies provide support on everyday life in the city, studying at BSBI, university processes and building connections within the student community.
