At Howest, your personal development is central. That is why we choose to organise guidance as close to you as possible. Throughout your study programme, you will be coached by the lecturers of your programme. As your study programme progresses, different emphases are placed.

At the start, you will be supported in learning to study, gradually shifting towards the development of self-management. As a budding professional, you are at the helm of your own learning path.

We also provide additional support in the form of learning track guidance, study coaching and numerous student services, which can remove possible study barriers.

To that end, you can address the lecturer concerned before or after class, make an appointment or attend a scheduled monitoring session.
