4 5 MASTER‘S PROGRAMME LIGHTING DESIGN 2 CRITERIA FOR YOUR DECISION he professional part time Master programme “Architectual Lighting and Design Ma- nagement” at Wismar University is a unique combination of the study fields “Architec- tural Lighting” and ”Design Management”. The curriculum is modular and focused on integration into the individual’s professional life. The central capability of a lighting designer, regardless of dealing with daylight or artificial light, is to design the interactions between architecture and light. The aim of the ”Architectu- ral Lighting” modules is to encourage the students to investigate architectural, physical and psychological aspects of lighting by using creative and autonomous methods. This is to be done while keeping human well-being as well as the standards of sustainable architecture in mind. The focus of the ”Design Management“ modules is teaching the students how to set up working groups in the field of Architectural Lighting Design. They will understand office or- ganization and how to improve project performance as well as the strategic management ap- proach. By using market analysis tools students can develop marketing and business plans. The ”Design Management“ modules also incorporate the concept of design as part of the customer’s value chain. The participants are provided not only with technological and design expertise but also experience the customer oriented view of professional practice. Our graduates will under- stand how to successfully develop lighting design concepts incorporating design, ecology and advanced technology. They are able to adapt these concepts to the diverse global mar- kets and also understand the interrelation of design, project management in relation to the customer’s needs. By gaining insight into market forces and management tools they are able to develop competitive benefits for their design ideas as well as for their office organizations. Our lecturers are professors and lighting designers from various universities and research institutes as well as from well known lighting design offices. They are specialists in the field of ”Architectural Lighting“ and “Design Management“, which ensures a high academic quality of the programme. The degree acquired is an internationally accredited Master of Arts (M.A.) degree. The part time programme started in 2012 but it developed based on the experience collected in the full time programme in “Lighting Design“at the Wismar University, which has existed for more than 15 years. In 2013, one year after the initial start of the programme, it was awar- ded the PLD-R award (Professional Lighting Design Recognition) in the category of education. One year later, the programme was accredited by a German evaluation and accreditation agency (ZEvA). 6 Cha-cha Thé, Taipei / Lighting Design: The Flaming Beacon, Nathan Thompson 7 Students excursion, Art Museum Ahrenshoop, 2016

CAREER 3 DEVELOPMENT s a result of increasing globalization, lighting designers have to deve- lop capabilities to maximize their competitive advantage. Acquiring an advanced design and technological background and the imple- mentation of this knowledge into design projects will help our graduates to excel in producing globally innovative and unique architectural lighting de- sign ideas. Our graduates will be able to develop successful concepts in architectural lighting design, integrating aspects of economic market forces and including project management strategies. They will be able to deliver advanced inte- grated design results. At the same time they will be prepared to take over responsibility as project managers or as the head of a design team, not only in the design process but also with regard to the economic aspects of profes- sional practice. The study programme is suitable for students who want to expand their de- sign capabilities or specialize in architectural lighting design. During their studies students have the opportunity to spezialize in “Heritage Lighting”. The programme is also appropriate training for professionals who already work in the field of lighting design and want to develop their professional career further. As an additional benefit you will meet professors, lecturers and students from all over the world with diverse cultural backgrounds. You will be able to make friends from foreign countries and to develop valuable international ties to different markets of the world, which can become the foundation of your future international professional network.

he “blended learning” approach provides a unique opportunity not only to acquire the highest levels of knowledge and skills but also helps to build a strong network from the very beginning of the Master’s programme. The seminar weeks, workshops, excur- sions and group projects are designed for you to be able to interact and work in close unison with other students, professors and professionals. The unique feature of this Master’s pro- gramme is to encourage social and professional network building between the students and UNIVERSITY at the same time to do so with the lecturers, professors and professionals from the lighting OF APPLIED industry. SCIENCES We take pride in the fact that our students hail from various parts of the world and have diver- se educational backgrounds in fields such as architecture, interior design, theatre, fashion, electrical engineering and psychology to name a few. Such a varied platform of students WISMAR provides a healthy environment for exchanging knowledge, skills and work-experiences, and at the same provides a wonderful opportunity to learn about new cultures, traditions, food and languages. Over the years, the most frequent comment from the class mates is how much they have en- joyed working together and forming friendships and life-long bonds. They often express how their interactions over the study programme helped them in developing their soft skills.Such networks and friendships offer both tangible and intangible benefits. Students learn to work in groups and teams, cooperate with each other and professionals but also gain valuable experiences and contacts for the future.
