In the fourth year, Landscape Architecture students further demonstrate previously practiced design processes and strategies for analysis, ideation, and formal design development. They apply artistic, social, economic, ethical, and ecological reference frames to their work. Fourth year students also exercise leadership roles as individuals and team members. Additionally, students in their final year of study finesse their communication skills across graphic, written, and oral formats.
