The Master of Landscape Architecture at UTS provides students with the opportunity to collaborate alongside celebrated practitioners from award-winning international design studios and leading experts in the area of urban design.

Students engage in various projects based on the big questions facing contemporary global cities and landscapes: 

Urban densification, climate change, declining resource supply (land, food and water) and the loss of biological diversity through ecological fragmentation and habitat destruction.

Using the most relevant and up-to-date methodologies and technologies, students participate in practice-based studios to develop their complex problem-solving skills to address the critical role of landscape in the cities of the future.

By building advanced specialist knowledge, UTS students graduate with a range of advocacy, political and professional agency, project management and financial skills to tackle contemporary issues in local and global contexts.

They become active in the discourse of what future cities may become through an integrated design-focused approach.

Graduates from the Master of Landscape Architecture are well-equipped to tackle contemporary issues in local and/or global contexts through an expanded understanding of the most relevant and up-to-date methodologies, tools and technologies.
