Om studiet

Vi tilbyr en master i arkitektonisk lysdesign. Det er mulig å søke opptak til enkeltemner i programmet og avlegge eksamen i disse uten å være tatt opp på masterprogrammet.

Course content

Light and lighting systems consume between 15 – 19 percent of the global electrical power, and accounts for five per cent of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions. 
55 percent of the world’s population or 4,2 billion people live in cities, and the trend is increasing. Municipalities and other stakeholders want more vibrant cities, with more activities and more social interaction even after dark. Recent, awareness on light pollution and the benefits of reducing unwanted lighting has grown, even to public demands on reduction in energy consumption and negative effects of light and lighting. In what might be considered unsolvable paradoxes new ways of approaching light and lighting design must appear, and more complex lighting design contexts calls for new knowledge, new skills, and competences to deal with future light and lighting challenges. The students are introduced to new scientific models and research that might help them in their work. The aim is partly to broaden the scope of the term sustainable lighting, and to search for intelligent and communicative effective light and lighting solutions in light strategies. The students are encouraged to put aside established regulations and guidelines on specifics in lighting and look at the sum of needs, objectives, functions, and desires to recalibrate our public spaces and places in terms of light and lighting design. Rather than fixing rigid lighting plans the students are asked to work on visions and missions to generate sustainable light strategies.
