Dark Sky Studies Intro Course Offered Fall Semester

Light pollution—excessive use of artificial light—poses environmental and safety threats, and it also prevents us from seeing the starry sky at night. Students in the Dark Sky Studies minor examine the negative impacts of artificial light, seeking to preserve our night skies.

This collaborative program is the first minor of its kind in the U.S. and includes courses and faculty from multiple areas at the U: science, public health, urban planning, engineering, religion, history, and philosophy. 

Explore this exciting minor by taking City and Metropolitan Planning (CMP) 3850, Lightscapes this Fall.

Open to all majors!
