Examination of ideas, needs, visions, and values that have shaped both the designed and the common landscapes of America from the colonial period until the early 1900s. Note: This is a writing intensive class and requires completion of English 0802 or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
Focuses on the use of digital media for visual presentation. Exposes students to image editing, publishing, and/or computer-aided design programs. Students learn how to create illustrative and technical drawings and/or portfolio work. Note: Course may be repeated once for a maximum of six credits.
Prerequisite:
LAN ARC 1544 or permission of the instructor
-
3.00 Credits
Addresses more advanced concepts in two-dimensional AutoCAD and introduces CAD applications as three-dimensional tools in the generation of perspective drawings. Includes plotting in color and integration with other graphic applications.
Prerequisite:
LAN ARC 1544
-
3.00 Credits
Students learn to “read” the landscape through the exploration of the landscape provinces of the Delaware River Basin. Through visiting natural landscapes in each of the sub-regions, students see how the relationship of geology, soils, hydrology, plant communities, and land use history reveals an understanding of the visual characteristics, opportunities, and constraints of development inherent in the natural environment.
Prerequisite:
BOTANY 1112
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Variable offerings from semester to semester of selected topics not part of the regular listing of courses. The topic can be in an area of specialization of a faculty member or an examination of a current development in the field. Note: Students may obtain a description of the current version at the department office and in the schedule of classes. This course may be repeated for credit.
-
1.00 Credits
This internship requires a minimum of one semester or 350 hours of employment with a landscape architecture firm, landscape contractor, or in a related field. During the internship, students should test concepts developed in class with real work experience. Note: Work should be completed between sophomore and junior years.
Prerequisite:
At least sophomore status in the Landscape Architecture program
-
6.00 Credits
Addresses issues pertinent to the design of parks and open space. Students analyze the site context in terms of open space and recreational opportunities, study and discuss comparable park systems and park designs. and may work closely with community groups and elected officials in developing an appropriate design program. The goal is to apply an ecological design process to the design of a park appropriate for a particular neighborhood context.
Prerequisite:
LAN ARC 2144
-
6.00 Credits
Provides individuals the opportunity to build and implement elements of their own design. Students prepare the necessary construction documentation and then actually construct their designs. Working with construction materials enables the student to learn the opportunities and limitations of these materials. This hands-on approach is vital to understanding the relationship between design and implementation processes.
Prerequisite:
LAN ARC 3145 and 2242
-
3.00 Credits
Includes the principles, processes, and techniques of site engineering for the “hard” elements of landscape architecture such as walls, paving, steps, decks, etc. Based on the understanding and appreciation of ecological principles, functional requirements, and aesthetic considerations. Includes elements of design/engineering such as siting buildings, grading design of simple structures, understanding the nature of construction materials, and the preparation of working drawings.
Prerequisite:
LAN ARC 2242
-
3.00 Credits
Considers the integration of plants into the design process and emphasizes scale, development density, natural site characteristics, natural plant associations, and individual plant characteristics. Planting design studies in a variety of contexts are included.
Prerequisite:
LAN ARC 1142 and HORT 1211-1212
