Through detailed analysis and skill development you'll learn about technical systems in site planning, landscape and land use planning, design and management, restoration and rehabilitation, design and management of outdoor spaces and the application of an interdisciplinary approach to environmental or urban projects. Graduates are equipped with a range of high-level technical, analytical, design and communication skills necessary to formulate solutions to challenges. The final stage requires the completion of fully resolved projects taken to a developed design stage through an independent research project.

This course is primarily concerned with the quality of the environment. A Master of Landscape Architecture degree provides a wide range of employment options, including working as a landscape architect, an environmental consultant, an urban designer, an environmental manager, a government policy advisor or a landscape architecture educator/academic.
