Interdisciplinarity in the Bachelor’s program in Landscape Planning and Architecture is implemented by structuring the program as an integrated framework that combines ecology and environmental sciences, spatial and territorial planning, landscape architecture studios, governance and policy instruments, as well as technical and digital tools. This approach is directly reflected in the curriculum, where from the first semesters the fundamentals of landscape planning and landscape architecture are interwoven with ecology, planning theories and methods, geosciences, natural resource economics and policy, and are further connected with social sciences, legislation, GIS, statistics, topography, CAD, and design studios. In this way, students are simultaneously trained to understand the ecological and territorial functioning of the landscape and to translate it into concrete planning, design, and management solutions at different scales.
