Course Summary

Landscape Architecture embraces all aspects of the science, planning, design, creation and management of landscape, in both urban and rural environments. It covers all scales, from the smallest garden to the greatest wilderness. This integrated masters course will take you from year one to year five of your Landscape Architecture education and includes one year working in a professional landscape practice. You’ll receive broad foundational training in landscape theories and concepts and choose whether to specialise in ecology or planning. You will work in a Landscape practice - as a paid employee - in year four, allowing you to experience life as a professional and start thinking about the type of practice you aspire to work in. Your final year helps to consolidate your skills and knowledge and culminates with a design project, rather than a written dissertation. MLA Landscape Architecture students remain registered with the university for all five years of the course, which means you’ll be eligible to apply for undergraduate funding, as well as enjoy any discounts and benefits associated with being a student, during these years. **Accreditation** Accreditation allows graduates to become a licentiate Member of the Landscape Institute, ready to start their Pathway to Chartership and become a Chartered Member of the Landscape Institute (CMLI). **Learning** The studio is the heart of learning and is where you’ll participate in workshops, small group seminars, tutorials and project reviews. Studio learning is supported by lectures, site visits and field trips. **Assessment** You will be assessed through group and individual coursework, which may include design portfolios, written reports or presentations. Feedback will be given throughout the semester via tutorials, interim and peer reviews. **Graduate Careers** Our graduates are in demand. Industry figures come to our end-of-year exhibition and advertise vacancies with us. Our graduates work all over the world and find employment in private practice, community development agencies, local authorities and national governments. Alumni include a former President of the International Federation of Landscape Architects and multiple RHS medal winners.
