Academic Forum 2021

The 6th VELUX Daylight Academic Forum took place virtually on November 18, 2021.

VELUX Daylight Academic Forum is a one-day event addressed to PhD students working with daylight research. It is held together with an invited panel of leading scientific experts and provides PhD students with an opportunity to present their study to experienced researchers and fellow students, discuss it and receive relevant insights for further project development. The aim is to raise discussion of research objectives and methodologies for PhD students studying daylighting and related issues. You can get an additional insight into the previous Academic Forum events and the LumeNet, with a focus on general lighting in alternate years.

By attending the Daylight Academic Forum PhD students gain:

More confidence in their work

Answers related to the research

New ideas and valuable feedback for the research development

Expanded network within the area

Inspiration from fellow PhD students
