Landscape Architecture Masters Theses

Fully accredited by the American Society of Landscape Architects, RISD’s MLA program is unique in that it gives students access to a wide range of fine art and design courses on campus, along with classes at Brown University, study abroad options and a six-week Wintersession that allows for focused study on campus or off. In addition, the program revolves around environmental and global issues, with recent involvement in projects in Bangladesh, Costa Rica, Ghana and beyond.

In the final year, students complete the course of study by developing a thesis and a methodology for testing their conceptual premise through a committed design project. This final requirement differs from most programs, and allows students to spend the time they need to develop a visual and written language that articulates their interests and future direction. All MLA candidates also participate in the RISD Graduate Thesis Exhibition, a large-scale public show held annually.

• For Students

Berkeley’s Master of Landscape Architecture integrates design excellence and innovation with ecological integrity and social justice . As an MLA candidate, you’ll engage with landscapes on a range of scales, from residential gardens to wilderness areas, with a special concern for the public realm. Our program empowers you to think critically about the performance of landscape spaces and systems through the lenses of environmental justice, cultural meaning, and visual form.

A key strength of Berkeley’s MLA program is that it brings together designers and scientists. In the landscape architecture track, you’ll learn how to apply social and ecological science to design and planning , while in the environmental planning track, you’ll develop a keen awareness of how design intersects with land-use decisions. Our MLA program prepares you for leadership positions in private design firms, public agencies, and nonprofit organizations, as well as teaching positions at leading institutions.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Berkeley’s Master of Landscape Architecture is centered around both design studio and fieldwork. As an MLA student, you’ll work closely with your classmates and professors in our light-filled open-plan studio to develop and represent your design ideas. You’ll also be out in the field, identifying plants at Blake Garden, participating in river restoration projects, monitoring air quality, and more. We encourage you to identify your own creative and research passions, with the support of your faculty advisor.

Walter Hood, Chair

Berkeley’s MLA is a full-time residential degree program. It is accredited by the Landscape Architectural Accreditation Board (LAAB) and designated as a STEM degree by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Landscape architecture and environmental planning are considered STEM disciplines since they involve the application of the physical and natural sciences, technology, engineering, and mathematics in the planning and design of sites where millions of people live, work, and play. We offer three tracks leading to the Master of Landscape Architecture degree. In our two landscape architecture design tracks, the first professional degree (MLA 3D) and the second professional degree (MLA 2D), you’ll chart new trajectories for the field, building upon legacies of critical spatial thinking. Working collaboratively with your cohort in design studios, you’ll learn how to create landscapes that serve both communities and the environment over the long term.

In the environmental planning track (MLA EP), you’ll develop skill sets to integrate information from various disciplines — geology, soils, hydrology, plant and wildlife ecology, law, and public policy — and present it in ways both comprehensible and compelling to decision makers.

Why Berkeley

The Department of Landscape Architecture & Environmental Planning offers you a rich intellectual community rooted in the dynamic contexts of UC Berkeley, the Bay Area, and California. California is the ideal place to study landscape architecture and environmental planning. As the birthplace of social justice advocacy and the environmental movement, 21st-century California brings issues of equity, urbanization, and climate change into stark relief. Its diverse population, 40 million strong, and its rich and varied environmental conditions — coasts, deserts, mountains, cities, suburbs, exurbs, and agricultural regions — makes it the ideal laboratory for our discipline.

As a UC Berkeley graduate student, you will be studying at the number one public university in the United States alongside the brightest and most passionate students from across the globe . Berkeley’s environment of critical inquiry, discovery, and innovation is informed by a deep commitment to contributing to a better world. 

About the College of Environmental Design

The Department of Landscape Architecture & Environmental Planning (LAEP), established at UC Berkeley in 1913, was one of the founding departments in the College of Environmental Design. When the college was created in 1959, it was the first in the nation to unite the disciplines of architecture, planning, and landscape architecture, leading the way toward an integrated approach to analyzing, understanding, and designing our built environment. The college emphasizes environmental design as a profoundly ethical practice , inseparable from social, political, economic, and cultural contexts and co-produced through dynamic engagements with diverse communities.

Our Faculty

LAEP is a small department, so you’ll develop close ties with our eminent faculty. As an incoming MLA student, you’ll be matched with a faculty advisor, who will help guide you as you begin to define the focus for your education.

Our multidisciplinary faculty have backgrounds in design , science , and planning — all grounded in a shared value for environmental justice and commitment to address the changing climate . They engage in research and teaching across a range of landscape scales to build inclusive, vibrant cities; construct resilient metropolitan ecologies; restore degraded ecosystems; and meet the challenge of climate change. Their research includes the design of innovative public spaces, from small-scale green spaces, streetscapes, and public plazas, to planning for ecological infrastructure, resource-efficient community design, urban forestry and environmental restoration, and landscape ecology.

MLA Degree Tracks

MLA 3D: three-year degree track

The three-year MLA (3D) is the first professional degree for students with non-design backgrounds. We welcome students with undergraduate degrees in any discipline. 

In this track, you’ll learn to apply scientific methods and harness your knowledge of plant and construction materials to design meaningful landscapes. It’s organized around the core design studio, which is the setting for the synthesis and integration of technical, environmental, historical, and theoretical course offerings. Specialized modules introduced in the studio each semester may include: planting design, grading and earthwork, computer-aided design, materials and detailing, and drawing. At the end of your first year, you’ll be ready to join the incoming cohort of students in the two-year track.

• Plan of Study for the MLA 3D

The three-year Master of Landscape Architecture degree program, for students with non-design backgrounds, requires 79 units and is organized around the core design studio, which is the setting for the synthesis and integration of technical, environmental, historical, and theoretical course offerings.

Applicants are considered for funding packages and financial support by each departmental admissions committee and are notified of any funding in their letters of admission; a separate fellowship application is not required. The university awards, through competition, a limited number of merit-based and diversity fellowships each year. We recommend that you also seek financial support independent of university sources. We encourage you to  explore the fellowship database compiled by Grad Division .

As a CED student, you are also eligible to apply for numerous competitive scholarships, fellowships, prizes, awards, and internships .
