Fast Student Awarded Scholarship to Attend the Illuminating Engineering Society Annual Conference

This past August, Architectural Technology student Rozlyn Mead and Interior Design student Dayanna Lopez Buitrago represented Humber Polytechnic at the Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) Annual Conference in Anaheim, California, after being awarded competitive scholarships to attend.

The experience was both inspiring and educational. Highlights included a private tour of Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, featuring presentations from the project’s architect and lighting designers, where students gained first-hand insight into the integration of lighting and design at a world-class destination. The gala also offered valuable networking opportunities with industry professionals, exposure to innovative new lighting products, and the chance to celebrate excellence in the field through the prestigious Illumination Awards ceremony.

This opportunity not only expanded Rozlyn and Dayanna’s professional networks but also deepened their understanding of the evolving role of lighting in architecture and interior design.
