      Intended to provide students with an awareness and appreciation for contemporary landscape architecture. While the primary focus of the course will be from 1950 to the present, we will periodically reach farther back into history in order to better understand key historical precedent projects and designers that were or are influential to contemporary designers and projects. This course situates current practices through a survey of precedents, events and spatial developments across cultures and scales. In order to understand the projective discipline of landscape architecture, we must study how it has been informed, influenced and shifted over its relatively short existence.

      Will survey a wide range of issues impacting the landscape and the social-ecological systems it supports. Climate change, urbanization, population increases, and migrations of human and non-human species are among the many pressures currently affecting landscapes and informing the disciplines involved in their analysis, design, and management. The course will also provide a global survey of the people and projects that are engaging in these landscape changes. These projects will range across scales from site to system and provide students with a greater understanding of the potentials for engaging these landscape issues through design and related fields.
