Quality of the bachelor Multimedia & Creative Technologies

Reporting on programme quality

  • Every 5 years, each programme undergoes a programme review.
  • A panel of independent experts (external and internal) checks the quality of your programme against the education quality code.
  • The panel provides meaningful feedback, which the programme uses to safeguard and improve quality.

Strengths

  • Students learn broad technical content, an eye for innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship, put into practice through projects - including through the Challenges
  • The programme stimulates students to be critical and openly communicate with respect for each other and each other's perspective.
  • The programme is structured to give students progressively more autonomy and less guidance over the three years, with complexity increasing in step with their growing expertise.
  • Students gain a strong understanding of the international work field.

Recommendations

  • Strengthen the communication to students - especially on planning, timing, organisation, communication, evaluation and feedback
  • Tackle the organisation, supervision and assessment of 3.3 Internship
  • Provide additional support for English (in the first year)

Institutional review

KdG: a University of Applied Sciences with an excellent quality report

  • All universities of applied sciences and universities in Flanders are assessed every 6 years through an institutional review.
  • In 2022–2023, KdG underwent its second institutional review.
  • This again led to a positive decision, based on a particularly positive final report from the assessment committee.

Safeguarding the quality of your education 

KdG uses a fixed system of 3 processes to continuously monitor and improve the quality of every programme.

1. Annual evaluation of learning and assessment materials

  • Each year, the programme evaluates the learning and assessment materials of a number of courses.
  • This is done together with lecturers, students, and representatives from the professional field.
  • The findings are immediately incorporated into the programme's multi-year plan.
  • As a student, you can read the results of this process on the programme page in Canvas.

2. Programme review: every 5 years

  • A panel of independent experts (external and internal) examines the entire programme in detail.
  • They assess everything against KdG's education quality code.
  • The panel provides concrete feedback, highlighting strengths, points to focus on, and any mandatory improvement points.
  • The programme uses this feedback to safeguard and improve quality.

3. Safeguarding and communication

  • Following the programme review, a safeguarding dialogue takes place: the programme develops a concrete action plan.
  • The General Director issues an official safeguarding decision; KdG's governing body ratifies this.
  • A public abstract of the programme review is published on this page - ensuring transparency for you as a (prospective) student.
  • Annual follow-up meetings systematically monitor progress.
