Overview

Landscape architecture is the design of land and buildings to achieve environmental, socio-behavioral, and aesthetic outcomes. The bachelor of landscape architecture degree is a studio-based course of study, meaning students receive an immense amount of hands-on learning in the design studio.

The curriculum of the Landscape Architecture program of the Utah State University covers both theoretical and applied knowledge. Specific courses in the landscape architecture program focus on the development of artistic expression and creative problem solving, the understanding of environmental processes and human behavior responses to different designs, and applied site engineering.

Each junior and senior student in the program is provided with an individual desk for their personal use, a drafting table, and storage space for their equipment.

Landscape students are also required to complete a study abroad, faculty-sponsored field study travel, or an individual internship. The purpose of the travel experience is to give students a well-rounded understanding of different landscapes and how they differ with culture, geography, and vegetation.
