4.00 Credits
A design studio that explores the roles of light in architecture and its application by design. Students conceive, evaluate, and synthesize solutions that contribute to successful lighting and architectural design. When Offered: Fall term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
4.00 Credits
This course provides students with an in-depth understanding of the components of advanced lighting systems and enables them to critically explore applications of those components. Through lectures, readings, assignments, and application projects, students acquire working knowledge of the relevant products and techniques for lighting application and develop solutions to lighting problems. Students will undertake practical applications of advanced lighting technologies and develop skills in the application of photometric data, use of manual and computer-based lighting calculations, and the development of lighting specifications. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to lighting and human factors, including classical literature and contemporary studies and development of skills needed to conduct and evaluate human factors research. When Offered: Fall term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
1.00 - 6.00 Credits
Individual projects and readings adapted to the needs of individual students at the advanced level. Credit Hours: 1 to 6
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the philosophy of research and different approaches to it. Emphasis is placed on planning, executing, analyzing, and describing experiments. Each student is required to keep a laboratory notebook and to perform statistical tests in concert with assigned research projects. When Offered: Fall term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
4.00 Credits
The Lighting Workshop is a research and design studio integrating scholarship, technology, design, policy, and communication in an intensive, project specific context. The course includes a number of topics, selected each year by faculty. These topics are selected to emphasize scholarship; require a variety of written and verbal presentation techniques; increase synthesizing skills in design, applications, and visualization software; and require teamwork and individual efforts. The Lighting Workshop emphasizes studio and seminar work supplemented with lecture, class discussions, and individual and group research, design, writing, and reading assignments. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: LGHT 4230. When Offered: Spring terms annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
4.00 Credits
This course will explore the effects of light and lighting on people's physical and psychological health and well-being. Lectures will focus on the physiology of the visual and circadian systems, the relationship between lighting and visual performance and circadian photobiology, including the relationship between lighting and Alzheimer's disease, sleep disorder, alertness, seasonal affective disorder (SAD), and breast cancer. The course will conclude with a research project studying the interaction of light and human health in the built environment. Students will learn to apply their newly acquired knowledge of the health effects of light to lighting design and application.Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: LGHT 4840. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
4.00 Credits
A series of topics and case studies to prepare students for leadership roles in the lighting industry. Topics relate to product innovation and factors influencing changes of policy and processes in the lighting industry and involve lecture and discussion sessions and reading assignments. Case studies examine selected topics in greater depth, using actual situations to illustrate interactions of technology and business forces. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
4.00 Credits
A comprehensive overview of the physics of light and its applications for lighting. The course uses a variety of instructional methodologies, including lectures, laboratory sessions, hands-on experimentation, and individual student projects and presentations to cover various areas of lighting study. Topics include geometric optics, physical optics, lighting calculations and measures, spectroradiometry, measurement techniques for advanced light sources, radiometry, and photometry. When Offered: Fall term annually. Credit Hours: 4
-
