About this course

Experiment beyond boundaries

Landscape architecture is about working with open spaces and built environments engaging with natural systems and human cultures. As a creative and contemporary practice, it is always growing and evolving.

Our Master of Landscape Architecture is a design-based degree that will teach you how to create visionary environments for the future. The degree develops technological and engineering expertise together with artistic expression and nurtures a deep knowledge of natural ecology and cultural environments. You'll learn how to work imaginatively with landscapes shaped by culture and natural systems using design, science, and engineering. The degree educates future professionals, empowering them to change the planet in positive ways, to address the ongoing climate and biodiversity crises and to work toward a more just and healthy environment.

Course structure

The majority of the teaching activities are based around the design studios, which are now aligned with the school's research streams 'History, Theory and Culture', 'Design' and 'Urbanism', along with courses in advanced ecological and landscape technologies.

A new internship elective has been introduced for students to experience a working environment in a landscape architecture firm in which to observe and apply their knowledge and skills for the degree. Elective options also include the offshore studio and other courses that have a community or professional experiential learning or engagement aspect.
