Lighting minor
The Center for Lighting Education, established in 1998 and unique to this area of the country, provides both our students and professionals the ability to mock-up retail design vignettes in order to evaluate the impact of lighting. The Center offers students lessons on energy efficiency and the use of color, angles and intensities to create different moods and atmospheres for retail purposes.
The Lighting Minor is an interdisciplinary minor in which the disciplines of fashion merchandising, interior design, and theatre are brought together to explore lighting for visual presentation. The 18-hour minor is intended for any student wanting to learn more about how lighting impacts the display of visual merchandise in interior environments.
