The Diploma in Landscape Architecture is a comprehensive programme designed to introduce students to the planning, design, and management of outdoor environments. It provides fundamental knowledge of landscape design principles, plant materials, site planning, environmental sustainability, and construction techniques for softscape and hardscape elements. Through studio-based projects, fieldwork, and technical subjects, students learn to analyse sites, develop creative landscape solutions, and communicate ideas using drawings, models, and digital tools. The programme emphasizes the integration of natural and built environments, promoting ecological sensitivity, cultural awareness, and user-centered design.
Students are also exposed to professional practices, teamwork, and basic project coordination to prepare them for industry demands. By the end of the programme, graduates will have the practical skills and conceptual understanding needed to assist in landscape design and implementation projects. The diploma prepares graduates for entry-level roles such as landscape assistants or site supervisors, and also serves as a strong foundation for further studies in landscape architecture or related built environment disciplines.
