Landscape Architecture

About

Landscape architecture is undoubtedly one of the most relevant design disciplines today. Global climate change is altering everything - everywhere in the world. We are faced with necessary tasks relating to the design and build of our surrounding environments and ecologies. The landscape and its functions, its ecosystem services and its appearance, will inevitably change, not slow but rapidly. Landscape architects must contribute to the design of this future landscape - urban, semi-urban, and rural.

Career

Landscape Architecture graduates work around the world because of their transferable skills. They start a business, work in private practice, for government agencies, NGOs etc. They also pursue further academic study in landscape architecture or related subjects. Many of our students become professional landscape architects.

After two years of recognised professional experience, graduates sit the Irish Landscape Institute professional examinations, which lead to full professional membership of the ILI. (See www.irishlandscapeinstitute.com).
