Engineering intelligent 
lighting program

Bachelor program


The lighting domain is changing radically with growing awareness of energy savings, its impact on human health & functioning and the discovery of the 5th photoreceptor. Hence, the importance of understanding light and lighting design.


This program included multiple courses and projects where engineers learn both the physical as biological aspect of light. Next to that, they attain knowledge regarding operating system and controlling systems, and the challenges within lighting design. This is then summarized in the teaching of how to design a lighting plan for different sort of applications. 


Key learning points:

- Physical properties of light

- Human factors and their perception of light

- Health benefit of light

- Potential future systems

- Knowledge on distributed control, operating systems, computer networks and sensors processing

- Lighting design, its process, tools (Dialux) & pitfalls
