About the course

The Master of Landscape Architecture (MLA) is a STEM designated degree program. We consider applicants with and without previous design education and encourage applications from individuals with diverse academic and professional backgrounds. We offer two professional program tracks ? the MLA I for those without a previous design education and MLA II for those with a previous design degree. The Landscape Architecture Accreditation Board (LAAB) accredits the program.

　　The MLA II track is two years in length and is designed for applicants with a previous design degree in Landscape Architecture, Environmental Design, Urban Design, or Architecture. Those with degrees in related fields will be considered on an individual case, but it is generally assumed that without the appropriate training provided by a previous professional design degree program, students will be enrolled in the MLA I program. MLA II students build on their previous design education (and practice if appropriate) to expand their creative capacities, advance their technical knowledge and skills, and enrich their leadership abilities in the design disciplines. These students join the MLA I students in the second year of the program enrolling in advanced studios, research seminars, and elective areas of interest in addition to a capstone project in the final year.
