Program overview
Landscape architecture is all about designing outdoor spaces like parks, courtyards, city squares, and waterfront green areas. You need both art skills—such as composition, color, and spatial awareness—and science knowledge—like how plants grow, soil drainage, and ecological balance. Core courses include landscape design, landscape plants, history of Chinese and foreign gardens, ecology, and engineering drawing. It's perfect for those who love drawing, nature, and have a hands-on spirit. Chinese universities excel in this field—for example, Beijing Forestry University, Tongji University, and Nanjing Forestry University not only teach modern design but also take you into classical gardens like Suzhou Gardens and the Summer Palace, helping you understand the Chinese philosophy of "harmony between heaven and humanity."
