MLA
Clemson offers a Master of Landscape Architecture (MLA) in two plans that focus on the art and science of the field. The First Professional degree plan is a three-year program for students that hold a bachelors degree in any discipline from an accredited college or university. Students come from a range of disciplines such as planning, history, English, environmental science, various social or natural sciences, art or other disciplines. The Second Professional degree plan is a two-year program designed for students who hold a five-year Bachelor of Landscape Architecture degree.
The program focuses on the internal strengths of the department--urban and community design (plus related research issues), landscape restoration (historical and ecological), and health and design. A more general emphasis on international study supports the three focus areas. Because the M.L.A. is the terminal degree in the field, graduates will have their choice of work in industry or academia.
