2016: Design theory relating to landscape design and site planning. Mass/space relationships, principles of spatial design and techniques used to create landscape space. 2015: Design theory involving two and three dimensional compositions. (3H,3C)īasic theory, principles, and methods of landscape design and site planning. The course includes an overview of the relationships of landscape architectural history, and design theories and philosophies. Historical precedent with respect to concepts of "form-generation" will be stressed. I,II (1H,1C)Ģ004: HISTORY AND THEORY OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE IĪ critical examination of the history and theory relevant to landscape architectural design and built form. Emphasis on the relation of people to the natural and built environment with particular attention to scale, forms, and space. Overview of the profession of landscape architecture. (1H,12L,6C)ġ144: INTRODUCTION TO LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE Restricted to landscape architecture majors or by consent of instructor. Students experimentally develop design methods for structuring concepts and forms that respond to identified issues. Laboratory and seminars in which students and faculty explore the nature of problems with which landscape architecture and the built environment are concerned. Undergraduate Courses (LAR) 1004: NATURAL AND HUMAN SYSTEMS IN LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE IĪn introduction to natural and human structures, patterns and systems in landscapes with emphasis on their relationship to planning and design. Upon successful completion of program requirements and with completion of 157 credit hours of study, a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture degree is awarded. All students must achieve a C- or higher grade in all required landscape architecture design labs and technology courses. Program RequirementsĪll students must achieve a minimum 2.00 GPA by the end of the semester in which the 50th credit hour has been attempted. The program in landscape architecture (B.L.A.) is a five year first professional degree program that is fully accredited by the Landscape Architecture Accreditation Board of the American Society of Landscape Architects. Studios are accompanied by a series of lecture, laboratory, discussion, and reading courses that provide systematic and comprehensive coverage of technical information related to landscape architecture, as well as the emerging body of knowledge related to design theory, landscape ecology, and human/environment interaction. The core of the academic program is a rigorous set of design studios that allow students to explore a broad range of landscape architectural issues and project types. Students entering the field should have an inquiring mind, a creative bent, and be willing to learn by doing. The professional curriculum in landscape architecture is designed to encourage new and imaginative solutions to problems involving these elements and their interrelationships. The profession is grounded in the natural and social sciences, draws its inspiration from nature and the arts, and is implemented through site engineering, construction, and land management technologies. The practice of landscape architecture is broad: ranging in scope from design of public open spaces such as gardens, plazas and parks to site planning of neighborhoods, multiuse developments and communities to managing land and land-based resources at a regional scale.
