Course summary

This creative and reflective Master's in Landscape Architecture considers interventions in the landscape through imaginative design, strategic thinking and technical knowledge. By preparing you to face real-world challenges, this course will help you shape the future of cities and rural environments as a landscape architect. Landscape Architecture MA is an accredited Master’s course that enables you to progress towards a career as a Chartered Landscape Architect. From the very first week, you will engage in design-led research, developing your thinking through speculative and practice-based projects. The course is committed to an agenda of climate-focused landscape design and environmental stewardship, preparing students to address sustainability and deal with real-world challenges such as biodiversity loss, climate change, and ecological crises. The core priority of the Landscape Architecture MA is to equip you with the skills and knowledge needed to innovatively respond to ecological, urban, and social challenges through your work with natural and built environments. The course is design-led, and Design Studios form a core component, giving you the opportunity to work to develop your own approach to landscape architecture. Within the Studios, tutors present unique, rigorous, challenging, and even radical intellectual positions, providing a strong identity for students working individually and in groups, and exploring real-world environments during field and site study trips. Design teaching is complemented with history and theory lectures, seminars and readings, examining the interdependence of thought, action, and form in history, society, culture, and geography. Students refine their communication skills through seminar presentations, written work, design reviews and exhibitions. A series of workshops and classes are available to help students gain integral skills, from planting and horticulture to digital skills and GIS. This accredited Landscape Architecture MA is primarily suitable for students looking to pursue a career in landscape architecture who already have a related background. Students will possess a strong research and design background and a keen interest in innovatively responding to ecological, urban, and social challenges through their work with natural and built environments. This design course is also relevant to early and mid-career professionals looking to expand their technical skills and knowledge and develop their own approach to the contemporary study of landscape architecture.
