| Course Structure | ||
| Throughout the course
of study, the core curriculum is arranged in 3 broad strands of
landscape design, construction and horticulture. In the study of
landscape design,
the design studio is inevitably the primary focus. But to design
successfully, you need knowledge and understanding of the cultural,
historical, technical and practical subjects which are integrated
– often implicitly – in the design process and explicitly
in the construction module. Each semester, students will complete at least one major design assignment in studio and in their own time, based on real site and client, plus additional projects to be completed in their own time. They will also attend lectures outlined in the curriculum starting with design philosophy, progressing to construction and specification and finally concentrating on planting design theory and professional practice. Other elements of the course consist of a range of associated subjects of which, garden history, construction, professional practice and planting design are the most important. These are taught through lectures and seminars and are expected both to provide a wider design understanding and to inform project work. |
