Using the plants of Southern California, students learn plant taxonomy through observation using illustration and journaling.

Explore the history, theory and strategies of conceptual art in this studio-based course

Students develop a solid knowledge of 3D Modeling with Rhinoceros in the context of landscape representation.

Gain an introduction to the essential basic commands of AutoCAD and their applications.

This course is part of UCLA’s Undergraduate Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) Program. It is available only to cadets participating in ROTC through UCLA.

Delve into the art and architecture of the 1700 through 1800s in this lecture course, which includes artists like Degas, Monet and van Gogh

Covers professional contract relations, responding to a request for proposal (RFP), and other areas of landscape architecture ethics and practice.

Students who successfully complete the course will be able to develop and produce professional 3-D project models using SketchUp.

This advanced course covers the basics of managing axial images' relationships, creating and editing 3-D drawings, file sharing, and external references, and file management for construction drawings.

This internship gives students an opportunity to acquire hands-on industry experience.

Utiltizing methods of environmental research and analysis, students invstigate the natural, historical, and cultural factors impacting land-use.

Focusing on understory plants and their communities, instruction focuses on selecting and placing appropriate plant material to influence the landscape architect's overall site composition.

This course concentrates on trees, shrubs, and companion plant groupings, planting location, etc. as design elements. Participants study plant texture, density, form, color, and other characteristics as articulators of space.

As the precursor for Capstone, with an instructor-selected site, design process, and site analysis, the student refines a program, selects goals and objectives, and prepares a design solution and documentation booklet.

Covering the evolution of the designed and human-built landscape, students study how designed exterior spaces are informed by cultural ideas, landform, structures, infrastructure, and the existing natural environment.

Ecological and cultural contexts are examined as determinants for using plants in design.

This third course in the Design Graphics Sequence takes the same site plan and designs and renders with digital media. A full graphic package is prepared with digital renderings, sections, and elevations.

Build upon drafting, lettering, and drawing techniques learned in Design Graphics 1, advanced applications of color and presentation are applied to final projects.

Using Tongva Park, students study design, program, and planting. Drawing, observing, and creating a hand-drawn plan are the outcomes.

Learn the basic principles guiding the successful design of space. Human factors, engineering, natural processes, human capabilities, and limitations are woven into the design of environments.
