Introduction
Bachelor of Science in Landscape Architecture
The BSLA curriculum includes study of the elements and principles of art, design and planning processes, environmental analysis, graphic and visual communication, plants and planting design, construction methods and sustainability, professional practice, and environmental history and theory. Our learn-by-doing education uses learning formats including, but not limited to lectures, seminars, studios, frequent jury reviews, discussion, and field trips. The program prepares students to be socially proactive, environmentally responsible, technically strong and sophisticated designers. Cal Poly Pomona's BSLA degree is nationally accredited by the Landscape Architectural Accreditation Board, and approved by the Council of Landscape Architecture Registration Boards as fulfilling part of the qualification requirements for professional licensure in all 50 states.
As of fall 2007, all undergraduate and graduate students entering the College of Environmental majors are required to purchase a computer (preferably a laptop) that meets minimum specifications of the programs (please contact the department for details). Financial aid assistance for this computer purchase is available to students qualifying for Federal Student Aid (requested via the FAFSA application).
