Research

Our practice-oriented scientific research is strongly connected to the professional sector, science, education, and society.

Research at Artevelde University of Applied Sciences results in well-substantiated, inclusive, and motivating products, methodologies, and services which diverse stakeholders can actually use in practice. Encouraging innovation and creating impact, regionally as well as internationally, are key.

Department Research and Development

The Research and Development Department encourages and facilitates quality research and entrepreneurship. We monitor external research policies, translate these internally, and support our researchers in their quest for funding and in publicizing their work, as well as creating impact with their research.

Additionally, we are working on a system to strengthen the quality of our research and manage our research projects more efficiently. In short, we pave the way for optimal and structural collaboration with our university of applied science, to innovate together and thus enhance the impact of our research from a regional to a global scale.
