The Bachelor of Science in Landscape Architecture (BSLA) program is a well-rounded combination of art, science, the humanities and professional skills. Landscape Architecture is a field that has significant historical roots but embraces the most important issues of our times, from creating sustainable places and protecting valuable resources to designing spaces of beauty, meaning, wellness and diversity.

Students in the landscape architecture program are able to combine critical thinking skills with artistic principles, environmental consciousness, and construction technology to address people’s relationship to the land in a range of situations. The curriculum emphasizes practical and evolving knowledge and skills as the foundation for professional competence, academic scholarship, and individualized enrichment. Our studio classes are small, student-centered, and provide a hands-on education in Knowlton Hall, an award-winning facility with extensive studio, library, and technology resources.
