The Jefferson Center of Immersive Arts for Health
Education
The Jefferson Center for Immersive Arts in Health has created cross-disciplinary courses focusing on the impact of immersive art on health, open dialogue across fields, and offers research opportunities for graduate and PhD level students across Jefferson. We have developed a cross-disciplinary curriculum on the history, design, and impact of Arts in Health, Lighting and Health, and Immersive Arts and Health. We are initiating research and generating and testing creative solutions. We have collaborated with other institutions in interactive design, lighting design, and research to create intra-university collaborations and student competitions.
Our first dedicated course, Health, and the Art Experience, ran in Spring 2022. the course Lighting as Public Experience has offered students the opportunity to design and test their work on a wide demographic of participants and to build upon the results year after year.
The Jefferson Center of Immersive Arts for Health seeks strategic academic partners for collaborative projects in curriculum building, resource sharing, and intra-university student projects and competitions.
