In the present study, considering the undeniable influence of cognitive sciences on our knowledge of ourselves and the world, as well as the fact that brain management and brain information management are regarded as new approaches in the field of cognitive sciences, and recognizing the need for the educational system to transform step by step in parallel with developments in the body of knowledge, an attempt was made to develop and design a brain information management curriculum for the establishment of a new undergraduate program under the same title. From the perspective of its objective, the current study is an applied research. Applied research is conducted with the aim of improving a practice, process, condition, or phenomenon by making use of the results of basic research. The methodological technique employed in this study is grounded theory. The method of data collection in the present study was field-based, and interviews were used to gather the required data. The statistical population of the study consisted of all experts in the fields of educational management, cognitive sciences, and education who live and work in Tehran. Furthermore, the sampling method used in this study was purposive judgmental sampling, and the sample size was determined based on theoretical saturation. The interviews continued until no new information was added by subsequent interviews. The findings of the present study indicated that the brain is an educable and flexible organ. The functional mechanisms of the brain are not rigid and unchangeable, and it is possible, in other words, to improve the brain and its functions. This improvement in brain functioning can be applied for highly diverse purposes.
