Do you like to think technically but also out-of-the-box? Do you follow the latest digital innovations closely? And above all, do you want to help companies and organisations convert this potential into added value? Welcome to the AI Business Professional major!

An AI Engineer develops AI software, using simple regressions, complex deep learning and / or state of the art reinforcement learning models. But this astute developer goes further than that: he or she develops a full back-end & API to convert the power of AI into an innovative solution.

The AI Engineer semester focuses on learning-by-doing alongside our local students. The international semester is aimed at both bachelor students and graduates from the computer science field.

Building on our successful AI @home, the IT bachelor Howest MCT worked together with the bachelor of Biomedical Laboratory Science and the Advanced Bachelor of

The English-taught semester “Applied Computer Sciences” offers a programme in Autumn and in Spring. However, as they are different in content, it is also possible to combine them into a full year of ACS. In that case, the course unit “Cultural and socio-economic introduction to Belgium” in the second semester will be replaced by one of the alternative courses from the “International Business Management” semester programme. 

Bioinformatics is a new and spectacular field which uses methods from informatics to store and process molecular biological information (DNA, proteins, functions). In bioinformatics, molecular biology is combined with informatics and programming. A bioinformatics scientist is capable of retrieving the necessary information from databases and of using these to make predictions. As a bioinformatician you will look for application possibilities of informatics within the (biological/biomedical) laboratory.
