Educational objectives

Core objectives The Department of Landscape Architecture aims to cultivate professionals who can contribute to society with comprehensive and interdisciplinary capabilities in environmental planning, design, construction, and management. Therefore, the goal is to foster landscape architecture experts who possess both theoretical knowledge and practical skills by developing comprehensive thinking abilities, scientific knowledge, artistic creativity, and engineering knowledge. To achieve this, the graduate program in landscape architecture is divided into landscape planning and design, environmental ecology, and landscape construction and management fields, promoting development through education and research in each field and fostering creative and leading advancements through cooperative networks.
Detailed objectives

1. Cultivate experts in landscape planning, design, and policy planning

  • 1-1. Develop comprehensive urban and landscape policy planning and landscape planning abilities
  • 1-2. Foster creative thinking and expression skills for landscape design
  • 1-3. Develop theoretical and technical abilities for rational landscape planning

2. Cultivate experts in environmental and ecological planning

  • 2-1. Acquire specialized knowledge in environmental and ecological planning
  • 2-2. Develop comprehensive environmental planning abilities based on field surveys and analysis

3. Develop practical and research capabilities in landscape construction and management

  • 3-1. Acquire scientific thinking and engineering knowledge related to materials, construction, and management
  • 3-2. Develop technical and operational programmatic capabilities for landscape maintenance and research
  • 3-2. Operate various field practice programs
Research areas Landscape planning, environmental and ecological planning, landscape design, landscape materials and construction structures, tourism planning, complex and urban environmental design, landscape architecture
Integration and differentiation plan with the undergraduate program
  • Select students who have completed or are expected to complete between four and seven semesters in the undergraduate program to participate in the integrated bachelor-master program, allowing them to complete both degrees in five years by taking at least six credits in the graduate program during their undergraduate studies.
  • The undergraduate education focuses on broadly recognizing and understanding various fields of landscape architecture, including planning, design, construction, and management. Graduate education is divided into two tracks: the general graduate school emphasizes theoretical aspects, while the urban science graduate school emphasizes practical and policy aspects.

Majors (track)

Cultural Industry Specialization Research in the cultural industry field aims to reveal the relationship between the development of cultural industries emerging as future industries and urban change
Regional Community Studies Research in the field of regional community studies aims to provide socioscientific analyses of new urban phenomena emerging due to industrialization and informatization.
