As part of a research institution, our students experience how research impacts design. Because research methods are woven into our MLA curriculum, students&nbsp; learn important concepts about research that is relevant to professional practice. Some of our MLA graduates pursue a Ph.D.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The MLA program concludes with a final study where students apply design theories and create designs for real or theoretical projects. They take on the same responsibilities a project manager would in a firm, preparing them for professional practice. Our students have won prestigious awards for their projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Master of Landscape Architecture program is fully accredited by the Landscape Architectural Accreditation Board. After completing your degree, you can pursue licensure to become a licensed landscape architect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-areas-of-emphasis\">Areas of Emphasis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-3\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\">\n<ul>\n<li>Spatial configuration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Environmental design<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Land use planning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Construction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Site grading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow\">\n<ul>\n<li>Stormwater management<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Critical thinking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sustainable site planning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Graphic and verbal communication<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-careers\">Careers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our graduates are motivated to be lifelong learners capable of independent and interdisciplinary leadership in the field of landscape architecture.

Our MLA graduates are educated to be competent in mastering landscape architectural knowledge in areas such as spatial configuration, environmental assessment, land use planning, construction, context, and the communication of ideas. Our curriculum is structured and learning outcomes foster the development of students to be creative, critical thinkers, effective communicators, and able to produce simple-to-complex and integrated solutions. We teach students through an evidence-based approach, so students learn how to form design decisions about the natural and built environments from precedence, research, context, creative thinking, and a diversity of perspectives. We aspire for our MLA graduates to become life-long learners and leaders in their field as licensed landscape architects (Revised and adopted 2020).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-accreditation\">Accreditation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Texas A&amp;M Master of Landscape Architecture program is a three-year degree program that is accredited by the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.clarb.org\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Council of Landscape Architecture Registration Boards<\/a> under the auspices of the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.asla.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> American Society of Landscape Architects<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Programs accredited by the Landscape Architectural Accreditation Board (LAAB) are required to provide reliable information to the public.
