AREN 3080 - Architectural Design Studio 1
Primary Instructor - Spring 2023 / Spring 2024
Learn about the fundamentals of architectural design and the ways in which it compliments architectural engineering. This introductory studio welcomes students to explore the strategies and techniques through which architects design and communicate. As a studio, the course culminates in a small-scale architecture project through which students will explore and become trained in the architectural design process.
AREN 3540 - Illumination I
Primary Instructor - Fall 2018 / Fall 2019 / Spring 2020 / Spring 2021 / Spring 2022 / Spring 2023 / Spring 2024
Studies the fundamentals of architectural illumination. Introduces and applies basic principles and vocabulary to elementary problems in the lighting of environments for the performance of visual work and the proper interaction with architecture.
AREN 4560 - Luminous Radiative Transfer
Primary Instructor - Spring 2018 / Spring 2019 / Spring 2021
Teaches fundamentals of radiative exchange as applied to illumination engineering. Describes and uses principal numerical techniques for radiative transfer analysis. Applies techniques to lighting design and analysis. Same as AREN 5560.
AREN 4580 - Daylighting
Primary Instructor - Fall 2018 / Spring 2021 / Spring 2022 / Spring 2023 / Spring 2024
Applies the fundamental principles of illumination engineering to architectural daylighting design, exploring the quantitative methods and tools used to develop daylighting designs and evaluate their performance. Topics include solar resource models, energy transfer models, design methods, and controls for integration with electric lighting systems. Same as AREN 5580.
AREN 4620 - Adaptive Lighting Systems
Primary Instructor - Fall 2021 / Fall 2022 / Fall 2023
Builds on architectural lighting principles studied in Illumination 1 and 2. Explores quantitative methods and the design process to develop architectural lighting control solutions. Topics include adaptive lighting applications such as daylight integration and occupant well-being, as well as control system architecture and components, codes and standards, and design implementation. Recommended prerequisite: AREN 4130. Same as AREN 5620.

AREN 4830 - Special Topics for Seniors/Grads
Primary Instructor - Spring 2018 / Spring 2019 / Fall 2019 / Spring 2020 / Fall 2020
Supervised study of special topics of interest to students under instructor guidance. May be repeated up to 12 total credit hours.

AREN 5001 - Building Science and Engineering I
Primary Instructor - Fall 2019 / Fall 2020 / Fall 2021 / Fall 2022 / Fall 2023
Prepares graduate students with general knowledge and skills that are required by advanced AREN technical courses. Covers two parts of materials: Building Lighting Systems and Building Electrical Systems.

AREN 5530 - Architectural Lighting Capstone
Primary Instructor - Summer 2021 / Summer 2022 / Summer 2023 / Summer 2024
Concludes the nine-credit Professional Graduate Certificate in Architectural Lighting with an immersive hands-on experience. Concepts learned in the two prior online courses will be demonstrated and experienced using facilities and equipment available on the CU Boulder campus. A culminating, comprehensive project submittal that includes content developed during the entire three-course sequence will be submitted following the on-campus experience.

AREN 5580 - Daylighting
Primary Instructor - Spring 2022 / Spring 2023 / Spring 2024
Applies the fundamental principles of illumination engineering to architectural daylighting design, exploring the quantitative methods and tools used to develop daylighting designs and evaluate their performance. Topics include solar resource models, energy transfer models, design methods, and controls for integration with electric lighting systems. Same as AREN 4580.

AREN 5620 - Adaptive Lighting Systems
Primary Instructor - Fall 2021 / Fall 2022 / Fall 2023
Builds on architectural lighting principles studied in Illumination 1 and 2. Explores quantitative methods and the design process to develop architectural lighting control solutions. Topics include adaptive lighting applications such as daylight integration and occupant well-being, as well as control system architecture and components, codes and standards, and design implementation. Previously offered as a special topics course. Recommended prerequisite: AREN 4130. Same as AREN 4620.

AREN 5830 - Architectural Engineering Special Topic
Primary Instructor - Spring 2021
Supervised study of special topics of interest to students under instructor guidance. May be repeated up to 9 total credit hours.
