Course summary


Landscape Architecture is the planning, design and management of spaces for nature and people. This course aims to educate landscape architects who have a more in-depth understanding of ecology and habitat creation. If you enjoy subjects related to biology or environmental sciences, or have a keen interest in the natural world, this course will equip you to combine a more detailed appreciation of ecological processes and how they work within the designed landscape.


A blend of art and science, this three-year undergraduate degree gives you a broad training in landscape architecture - the planning, design and management of urban and rural landscapes - with a specialism in ecology.

You’ll combine learning about habitats, wildlife and ecosystems with design training in landscape architecture, giving you the knowledge and skills to create places in which people and nature thrive.Working at scales covering the smallest garden, to large-scale urban development and rewilded country estates, you’ll learn how to protect and restore existing habitats and meet the challenges of global environmental change.You will be supported by our world-renowned researchers and teachers - in the UK’s largest Department of Landscape Architecture - as you develop to become a skilled designer, with an in-depth understanding of ecology, habitat creation and the impact of your designs.If you have an artistic flair and love learning about the natural world, this course enables you to pursue both passions.At the end of your third year, you can choose whether to continue to train as a professional landscape architect, or whether to apply your new skills in other fields of employment.
