MA Landscape Architecture Studies – Online

  • DeadlineStudy Details:

    MA 2 years part-time – online

Course Description

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.

Entry Requirements

We encourage applications from students with a broad range of qualifications and we welcome students from all educational backgrounds. We’ll take into account the knowledge and skills that you have developed outside the classroom, as well as your previous qualifications.

There are two different routes to entry: the standard  and non-standard  routes. Admissions staff will assess entries to determine which route is appropriate for you when you apply.

Standard Route

You’ll usually have a BA (Hons) degree graded at 2.2 or above, or an equivalent UK or international qualification in film or the following related subjects: animation, photography, fine art, or media.

Non-standard Route

Applications are also welcomed from those with other qualifications or with work which demonstrates appropriate knowledge and skills to study at postgraduate level.

Your application will be considered for entry if there is sufficient evidence to indicate that you have the potential to fulfil the objectives of the course of study and to achieve the standard of the final award.
