Master of Landscape Architecture

Program Overview

The Master of Landscape Architecture offers an academic qualification leading towards professional registration as a landscape architect.

The MLA is accredited by the UK Landscape Institute and recognised worldwide by the International Federation of Landscape Architects, preparing you for the final stage of professional accreditation as a landscape architect. It is jointly run by Manchester Metropolitan University and The University of Manchester meaning you will benefit from the resources and expertise available in both institutions.

At Manchester School of Architecture (MSA) we believe that landscape architects can contribute to combatting the climate and ecological emergency, promote social equity, provide common resources in the form of public space, and make a difference to people’s lives.

The Master of Landscape Architecture offers space to experiment through research, live projects, and our studio atelier system which celebrates diversity. The MLA promotes multiple critical approaches to practice and a wide range of creative and analytical approaches.

Our students benefit from working with our specialist landscape staff and engaging in interdisciplinary projects, gaining access to a diverse pool of faculty and guest experts. Our graduates acquire collaborative experience and build networks across the Manchester School of Architecture and landscape practices. They develop a portfolio that supports them to find employment both locally and globally.

Career Opportunities

The vast majority of our graduates go on to find employment in the profession, either in the UK or abroad, many due to connections established during the course. Outside London, the North West of England is the base for more landscape practices than anywhere else in the country. Opportunities exist in a wide range of organisations, from small private practices to international, multi-disciplinary firms. Alternatively, landscape architects are also employed in the public sector or non-profit making organisations. Many alumni have gone on to positions of responsibility in major international firms and have been involved in the delivery of landmark projects around the world.
