The professional Master of Landscape Architecture (MLA) degree at the University of Toronto’s John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design is a nationally accredited programme that uses intensive studio-based courses to address current global design challenges.
Landscape architects are uniquely positioned to engage complex contemporary issues: climate change, urbanisation, ecological resilience, social equity and cultural reconciliation.
Complementary lecture and seminar courses in history, theory, technology and environmental studies serve as a forum to examine landscape architecture’s synthetic role in design and planning at scales ranging from the garden to the region and beyond, all while providing the comprehensive training needed for professional accreditation.
Through a three-year programme of study, students develop independent research directions that culminate in the final term’s thesis studio.
The programme’s goal is to develop progressive models for landscape architecture practice: we encourage work that explores and extends the discipline’s ties to the humanities, environmental and social sciences, and engineering.
