The Howard Brandston Student Lighting Design Education Grant was established to encourage and recognize students who have demonstrated exceptional professional promise through the presentation of an original and ingenious solution to a supplied design problem.

The award comprises a plaque and a check in the amount of $1,000.

The award is presented in conjunction with the IES Annnual Conference each year.

Group entries will be accepted. However, if a group entry is selected, the group will receive the plaque and the $1,000 check will be presented to the group as a whole.

To be eligible to enter this competition, applicants must be enrolled as full-time students in an approved academic degree program. Approved programs are those offering a substantial core of illumination studies and are either engineering technology programs accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology; architecture programs accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board; interior design programs accredited by the Foundation for Interior Design Research; or theatre programs accredited by the National Association of Schools of Theatre. If there is a question about accreditation, please query.

Please note that the deadline for receipt of completed entries to the New York office of the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America is May 1. Judging of entries will take place in mid-May.

The purpose of the Howard Brandston Student Lighting Design Education Grant is to foster good lighting and to advance the appreciation of lighting as an art.
