Main informations
Landscape architecture is the design of outdoor and public spaces to achieve environmental,
socio-behavioral, and aesthetic outcomes. It involves the systematic investigation of existing social, ecological, and geological conditions
and processes in the landscape, and the design of interventions that will produce the desired outcome.
The theoretician Charles Eliot perceived landscape architecture as the art of beauty; its object was to shape and protect beauty of countryside and town settlements.
A graduate of the Department of Landscape Architecture should possess knowledge of landscape and space shaping,
parks and recreation planning, urban designing, environmental restoration, as well as green infrastructure planning. A landscape architect, as the practitioner in the profession of landscape architecture,
is involved in the planning and design of an exterior landscape or space.
The Department of Landscape Architecture and Agrotourism in Olsztyn was established in December, 1997.
The employees of the Department, together with doctoral students, conduct classes and give lectures at the Faculty of Environmental Management and Agriculture, framework of the following majors:
- Landscape architecture
- Gardening
- Environmental Protection
The first graduates of vocational studies in landscape architecture in our Department took their diploma exams in 2004. Students of this major receive the title of engineer or master of landscape architecture.
