Abstract
Just as lighting is integral to architecture, it is also vital in design education. Therefore lighting courses have been developed and offered over the last 20 years in the Department of Architecture at the University of Washington. This educational program is based upon the goal of integrating the many concerns of lighting design?from its conceptual and form-giving aspects to its connection with energy conservation?into the architectural design process. Beginning in 1995, we have offered a Lighting Certificate to graduates of our program who have completed certain requirements.
