Field Studies

Richly expressive and engaging

We believe that traveling and experiencing the best of contemporary landscape architecture first-hand is a crucial part of design education, so our studios travel regularly to sites far and wide throughout the United States and beyond. These trips are a regular part of the program, and students can look forward to at least one trip of three or four days duration each semester.  Recent field studies adventures have included Los Angeles, California; New Orleans, Louisiana; Chicago, Illinois; Beijing and Shanghai, China; Portland, Oregon; Albuquerque, New Mexico; and Belize.

Photos from these trips often make their way onto our Instagram.
