This intensive one-year program is research-driven, providing in-depth expertise in landscape architecture.
You'll examine various facets of the field, acquire specialized academic and professional competencies, and complete a thesis on a landscape subject of personal significance. The year-end exhibition offers an opportunity to showcase your projects to potential employers.
Designed for those with prior landscape architecture experience, this course delves into advanced academic concepts concerning landscape challenges. For those new to landscape studies seeking professional qualifications, we recommend applying for our two-year accredited MA Landscape Architecture program.
Career prospects
Our alumni enjoy diverse, fulfilling careers globally, with graduates employed across 70+ countries. They work in private practice, establish their own firms, and contribute to public and nonprofit organizations, enhancing communities worldwide.
Landscape Studies graduates typically pursue international professional roles or academic research paths rather than UK-based practice.
Even if you choose a non-landscape career, you'll remain highly competitive. The program cultivates transferable skills including visual communication, project coordination, and presentation abilities, equipping you to create meaningful impact in any professional direction.
