Nature is Living Environment!As environmental problems are getting move and more serious, the demand for comfortable and environmentally sound living spaces are increasing. Therefore, the demand for planning & design, construction and maintenance (management) to build more environment friendly spaces is growing. New concepts such as the ecological restoration, the urban Biotope and ESSD (Environmentally Sustainable and Sound Development) are creating lots of new opportunities for environment specialists. To measure up to these social needs, the curriculum of our Department of Environment & Landscape Architecture is focused on landscape planning, landscape design, landscape construction and landscape maintenance with ecological and environmental interest. Also, the department provides two special major courses, the landscape design course and landscape construction and management course. Through these courses, students will gain vocation-oriented skills and techniques corresponding to industrial standards.
