Expert Creative Development

By the final year, you are ready for a good dose of experimentation. If you choose to minor in Creative Development, you will be working with Arduinos, WebGL, Machine Learning and real-time communication. You will also be physically developing your digital ideas for the first time.

You will create installations that can be given a place at festivals or museums, for example. You will use your programming know-how to create truly immersive experiences. From games to moving light projections on buildings, as a development expert, you will participate in hackathons and focus further on your personal project.

As an expert in Creative Development, you will also get the chance to delve completely into the subject matter of your choice, from Artificial Intelligence to Full Stack Web Development.

The Level

Hét grote pluspunt bij Howest is de persoonlijke aanpak. De lectoren kennen elke student en volgen je nauw op. De gebouwen van Howest hebben bovendien een ziel. Op de bruisende campussen heerst een gemoedelijke sfeer onder studenten en lectoren. Ook bij het administratief personeel en Stuvo staat de deur altijd open.

Aan deze hogeschool leer je niet enkel in boeken, je stapt ook de wereld in en oefent in de praktijk. De uitgebreide stages bereiden je voor op de arbeidsmarkt. Na de opleiding ben je klaar voor het echte werk of kan je verder studeren als je dat wil.

If you choose to study Devine, you will need to purchase a Macbook from Apple. You can purchase these with a student discount.

See which laptop the course recommends

Because students sometimes have doubts about Devine and the cost of a Macbook, we allow them to work with another device (e.g. a Windows laptop) until the end of the first semester in the first year. As of January, it is mandatory for all students to work with an Apple laptop.

As a student in higher education, you may be granted special status based on individual characteristics and/or circumstances. Within Devine, we want to provide every student with maximum opportunities to flourish and therefore offer the facilities below:

  • 3 Howest-wide examination facilities
    1. Oral explanation
    2. 20-30% extra time within provided exam block
    3. Appreciation in case of spelling errors/wrong sentence structure
  • Earplugs or noice cancelling headphone
  • Medication on doctor's prescription
  • Water during lesson/exam
  • Notebook
  • Fixed submission time for assignments (10 p.m.)
  • All exams take place on laptop

If you want more info on special status and adjustments, you can contact STUVO for the options on statutes and facilities within Howest, the application process and additional study support.

Would you like to study abroad for a semester? Or are you interested in an international internship? You can! You will discover all the opportunities to go abroad within Howest on this page. During your studies, we will work together to make your international adventure a reality!

Application deadlines for the academic year 2023-2024 are as follows:

  • 1 July, 2023 for EEA citizens and other applicants who do not require a visa.

Devine is a specialised programme which consists of approximately 350 students. The classes are consciously made up of a small amount of students, which ensures a personalised follow-up and a “familial” atmosphere for the students. Class sessions range from one-on-one coaching with the lectors to 35-50 student workshops. 

There are over 400 international students currently studying in Kortrijk at our campus so you will fit right in with this vibrant international community. We regularly organize events and workshops and there is a central meeting point on campus where international student can hang out.

The academic year officially starts in the second week of September with an orientation week. Attending the orientation week will allow you to familiarize yourself with the campus, socialise with other internationals and take care of practical arrangements. You also get your first theory classes in this first week. That way you are off to a flying start.
