Landscape Architecture - master

The master’s in landscape architecture gives special emphasis to arctic/subarctic conditions. Arctic and subarctic landscapes are undergoing rapid change, which makes it particularly relevant to study how natural and human-made changes impact both society and ecosystems.

Students on the programme learn to practice on diverse spatial and temporal scales to address changes to Arctic and subarctic landscapes. These changes encompass social, climatic, geopolitical, economic, and environmental concerns.

The aim of the study programme is to educate landscape architects who can operate within the framework of a sustainable societal development. Graduates who complete this programme will be equipped with the skills and knowledge to address the design and development of landscapes undergoing rapid change.

Students on the programme study with Scandinavian students undergoing a five-year integrated master’s in landscape architecture with three years of primary education at the Oslo School of Architecture (AHO) and two years of specialization at UiT, The Arctic University of Norway. All students on the programme follow the same curriculum.
