Academic Forum
Discover new ideas for your research on daylight and architecture
The VELUX Daylight Academic Forum is a research methods discussion for PhD students with a thesis that includes daylight and related issues. It provides PhD students with an opportunity to present their work to an invited panel of leading scientific experts and fellow students, discuss it, and receive insights for further development of their project. The aim is to raise discussion of research objectives and methodologies for PhD students. The Academic Forum runs in alternate years with LumeNet, which has a focus on general lighting.
