AREN 3430 - Architectural (Interior) Lighting Design
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2022 / Spring 2023 / Spring 2024
Studies the fundamentals of architectural illumination with an emphasis in design and application. Introduces and applies basic principles and vocabulary to problems in the lighting of interior environments for the performance of visual work, the proper interaction with architecture, and compliance of energy requirements.
AREN 4317 - Architectural Engineering Design
Primary Instructor
-
Spring 2018 / Spring 2019 / Spring 2020 / Spring 2021
Provides a capstone experience to AREN students. Students design a modest commercial building and complete an integrated engineering design of the building systems executed for the conceptual, schematic, and design development phases. Students' teams work on structural, mechanical, electrical/lighting, and construction engineering management design. Each stage produce a professional-quality design document. Faculty and industry mentors participate in the teaching and evaluation of designs.
