About

The Landscape Architecture programme is offered by The University of Edinburgh.

Overview

Inclusive access to outdoor environments led by the OPENspace research centre

  • Exploration of how public open space, urban parks and squares, forests, green and blue spaces and rural areas can contribute to quality of life. Our work includes a focus on the benefits to be gained from getting outdoors and the barriers currently experienced by different users, particularly those from disadvantaged groups.

  • Landscape design and planning to support young children, teenagers, older people, and other age groups and sectors within the population.

  • Research on salutogenic environments (the health-enhancing qualities of engagement with certain types of landscape) and on discerning the mechanisms behind any links between wellbeing and the natural environment.

  • Environmental perception, including empirical research on the transactional nature of people’s engagement with place.

Landscape planning and design

  • Landscape architecture as a force in urban planning including the application of landscape character assessment, the dynamics of peri-urban areas and future landscape scenarios.

  • Innovative, practice-led design research, especially involving collaborations with artists and designers from disciplines outside landscape architecture.

  • Cultural landscapes and the understanding the relationship of people through their lives to specific landscapes, including the role of memories and associations with contested landscapes.

  • The history and theory of landscape architecture, including development of the public role of the landscape architect in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Facilities

Research programmes in architecture are served by high-quality library facilities.

All students in the programmes are provided with access to study space, as well as access to well-equipped multimedia laboratories, photography and exhibition facilities. There are also several bookable spaces for the development of exhibitions, workshops or seminars.

The Landscape Architecture programme is offered by The University of Edinburgh.

Programme Structure

  • All of our research students benefit from ECA’s interdisciplinary approach and all are assigned two research supervisors. Your second supervisor may be from another discipline within ECA, or from somewhere else within the College of Arts, Humanities & Social Sciences or elsewhere within the University, according to the expertise required. On occasion more than two supervisors will be assigned, particularly where the degree brings together multiple disciplines.
  • Our research culture is supported by seminar and public lecture programmes and discussion groups. You will be required to undertake research training during your degree. This will take the form of one or more semester-long courses consisting of workshops on research methodologies, designed for students working in landscape architecture, architecture and allied disciplines.
