Part time programme

Master's in Lighting Design

Organisation

The international Master's program comprises of focussed lectures in Wismar, Berlin and Bangkok. The lectures are taught in English, ensuring that the programme remains open to all who are interested from around the world. The course incorporates valuable lessons learned from the Wismar-based programme which has developed into a highly sought after course of study with an established faculty.

Students consistently evaluate the study programme positively. Additional influence was brought by the expertise of the WINGS Company, which currently educates more than 5,400 online and professional part time students for example from the USA. The course was developed on the basis of experience, which was gained from classes, training programmes and courses offered both domestically and abroad.

The content of the curriculum was devised from the training concept put forth by the European Lighting Designers Association, ELDA (now PLDA). After discussions with lighting designers and luminaire manufacturers, the content was extended and completed. We were actively encouraged by the professionals to start this part time programme first time in winter semester 2012/13.

The latest course, beginning in September 2021, started with 24 students from 11 different countries around the world.
