Welcome to the Columbus Section of the Illuminating Engineering Society

The Illuminating Engineering Society was founded in 1906 to
establish scientific lighting recommendations and to advance
knowledge of the lighted environment for the benefit and
improvement of society.

The IES, a non-profit membership organization, sets out to
improve the lighted environment by bringing together those with
lighting knowledge and by translating that knowledge into actions
that benefit the general populace.

The Columbus Section of the Illuminating Engineering Society is
the technical authority on illumination who caters to all lighting
professionals. The Columbus Section's vision is to build upon a
century of outstanding excellence to create a premier lighting
community that’s dedicated to promoting the art and science of
lighting to its members, allied professional organizations and to
the public through inspiring events and through informative
programs, presentations and networking events.
