Skills development
All landscapes are the consequence of a myriad of relationships between the geology, water, vegetation, animals, weather, social norms and cultural values. The nature and balance – or lack of balance – in these relationships are important to understand if we are going to manipulate or rehabilitate the landscape.
In this studio students will use what they learn about landscape systems to develop design and management strategies. Through the studio project students will demonstrate their understanding for the value of the strategic approach and how it this is applied at various scales frrom the regional to the site specific.
Students will build on knowledge of the tdesign process, technology and plant material to develop an appropraite scheme.

Extensions & Late submissions
All students will be required to print submissions and present work to a design jury.
Students must apply academic integrity in their learning and research activities at UC. This includes submitting authentic and original work for assessments and properly acknowledging any sources used.
Academic integrity involves the ethical, honest and responsible use, creation and sharing of information. It is critical to the quality of higher education. Our academic integrity values are honesty, trust, fairness, respect, responsibility and courage.
UC students have to complete the Academic Integrity Module annually to learn about academic integrity and to understand the consequences of academic integrity breaches (or academic misconduct).
UC uses various strategies and systems, including detection software, to identify potential breaches of academic integrity. Suspected breaches may be investigated, and action can be taken when misconduct is found to have occurred.
Information is provided in the Academic Integrity Policy, Academic Integrity Procedure, and University of Canberra (Student Conduct) Rules 2023. For further advice, visit Study Skills.
