X407 (4 semester units in Landscape Architecture)
This course emphasizes a multidisciplinary design approach by integrating data from the natural sciences, economics, sociology, and other fields that influence the design and development of the landscape. Class projects involve a series of progressive steps in which regional considerations together with large amounts of contextual information can first be comprehended and analyzed, and then creatively addressed in the form of a comprehensive master plan.
Enrollment is limited.
