The Master of Landscape Architecture program at the University of Florida College of Design, Construction and Planning offers two primary tracks: the First Professional Master for students without a previous LAAB-accredited degree and the Post Professional Master for those with such a degree. The First Professional MLA is an LAAB-accredited, STEM-designated program designed for students from any academic background. Courses emphasize design, planning, ecology, construction, and cultural landscapes, preparing graduates for licensure and professional practice. The curriculum integrates research skills, sustainable systems, environmental stewardship, critical analysis, and creative design approaches, with opportunities for field trips and internships under the supervision of registered landscape architects.
