Location of University of Greenwich

This programme is professionally based and encourages independence of mind and personal specialisation. As an accredited programme, it forms, with BA Hons Landscape Architecture or BA Hons Garden Design, part of an 'intercalated' set of awards leading to membership of the chartered professional body, the Landscape Institute. It is for students who have completed one or more years in landscape practice and who intend to become members of the Landscape Institute.

The programme is well known both nationally and internationally and is one of the longer established British programmes. It is structured on a studio/tutorial basis with lecture/seminar courses. Teaching is shared with MA Landscape Architecture and the urban development project within MA Urban Design. Technically this is not a postgraduate programme (it is intercalated) but is included in this prospectus because it has graduate entry.

Career options
The programme offers employment opportunities in the private and public sectors in the UK and worldwide.
