University College Ghent (Dutch: Hogeschool Gent), commonly known as HoGent, is the largest university college in Flanders, with three faculties, one School of Arts and over 17,000 students as of 2022. Its establishment in 1995 is the outcome of two successful mergers that involved sixteen Belgian institutions of higher education. Many had been influential leaders in higher education for several decades. The current faculties are spread over the city center of Ghent and Aalst. Ghent University of Applied Sciences and Arts is one of the 17 university colleges in Flanders. It was founded in 1995 when thirteen institutes of higher education merged. In 2001, a second merger took place to form Ghent University of Applied Sciences and Arts as we know it today. In 2003, Ghent University of Applied Sciences and Arts became part of the Ghent University Association, a cooperative body of universities and university colleges. More information...
