专业概况

在这里学什么？

Landscape architecture is the art of design, planning, or management of the land and of the natural and built elements upon it. As an academic discipline, it embodies creative, cultural, philosophical, and scientific knowledge bases. As a professional discipline, the practice of landscape architecture includes site design, urban design, master planning, community planning, regional planning, resource conservation, and stewardship.

The program currently is a ten-semester curriculum leading to a professionally accredited Bachelor of Landscape Architecture degree. One semester of the curriculum is spent in a required semester abroad. The program prepares graduates for entry into professional offices or pursuit of advanced study in related disciplines. The curriculum develops both the creative insight and the technical skills essential to practice and fulfills the education requirement needed in all states to be eligible to take the professional licensing examination.

Landscape Architecture is a design profession focused on natural and built environments and people’s experiences within them. Landscape architects create spaces and places that artistically, functionally, and ethically blend nature and technology to impact experiences, opportunities, activities, and events at individual, community, and even global scales. Landscape architects plan and design parks, plazas, arboreta, campuses, gardens, memorials, green roofs, interactive installations, commercial centers, transportation corridors, waterfront developments, and so much more. Landscape architects also play a critical role in protecting the environment. Restoring natural places and creating sustainable landscapes contributes to healthy communities. Landscape architects develop landscapes that sequester carbon, clean the air and water, increase energy efficiency, restore habitats, and deliver economic, social, and environmental benefits.
