Learning outcomes of the learning unit

Lighting

At the end of the course, it is intended that the student will be able to:

- understand and apply the basic photometric quantities used in lighting techniques,
- understand recommendations, technical documentations or standards published in the lighting techniques literature, in particular concerning security lighting,
- apply the basic laws of photometry (for example to calculate the illuminance in simple situations),
- identify the different types of lamps, their properties and applications.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

Lighting

Basic mathematics and physics.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Lighting

This course is organised during a one-day module, consisting in a general presentation ex cathedra, including some applications and exercices with the teacher.
It is recommended that the students actively participate to the general presentation by answering questions and creating discussion. Also during the exercices, the students must be equipped with a calculator.
