Summary

Landscape architecture connects people across disciplines, cultures and communities – all of whom share the common goal of creating places that have a positive impact on society, culture and the environment.

There is now, more than ever, a recognition that landscapes must be conceptualised, designed, and managed in ways which address contemporary challenges facing communities and the global environment, including environmental sustainability and human resilience and wellbeing.

The MA Landscape Architecture Studies online programme explores how professionals in the field build a healthy, equitable relationship between their practice and our planet’s ecosystem. It has been thoughtfully designed to provide an in-depth perspective on landscape design practice, against a background of contemporary regional and global issues.

With a real-world approach that emphasises both theory and practice, a range of topics explore the interfaces between people, landscapes, cities and nature. We’ll help you develop your understanding of the problems and opportunities facing urban and rural landscapes, covering issues that relate to both individual placemaking and wider infrastructure.

Just as importantly, you’ll also be exposed to different cultural and professional contexts. Within a creative and supportive learning community where collaboration and innovation are encouraged, you’ll develop the creativity, critical thinking, and landscape architectural skills needed to forge an exciting new chapter in your career.

Note: The MA in Landscape Architecture Studies is not designed to provide a complete training for becoming a UK Chartered Landscape Architect and is not recognised professionally by the UK Landscape Institute. However, the course provides a basis for further education, career development, and work in a variety of areas, as well as opportunity for specialised study. The modules within this course have been crafted to help you contextualise your current or future landscape design practice within a wider framework of interconnected systems. With support from our experienced academics, you’ll get to explore the benefits that this dynamic approach could bring to both your career, and to wider social, economic and environmental needs.
