    Primary Instructor - Fall 2020
    Building on skills learned from the introductory studio, this course expands the skills and knowledge needed for the practice of landscape architecture. With a focus on resilient design and an exploration through multiple scales, students design ecological systems in an urban context.
  • ENVD 1976 - First Year Scholarship Colloquium Seminar
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2019 / Fall 2019
    Inspiration in the design profession can be found through a series of faculty and professional lectures. Students develop an understanding of the breath of environmental design careers, research and practice.
  • ENVD 2014 - Special Topics: Theory, History and Historiography of Environmental Design for no
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2023
    Addresses variable topics in theory and criticism, history and historiography of environmental design.
  • ENVD 2130 - Environmental Design Studio 2
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2018
    Exposes students to a sequence of design investigations that lead to the development of design concepts for critical evaluation and discussion. The intent of this introductory design studio is to expose students to the fundamental design practices that are common to the disciplines of architecture, urban design and landscape design - disciplines that share the responsibility for shaping the designed environment. Recommended corequisite: ENVD 3003.
  • ENVD 3100 - Environmental Design Studio 3
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2023
    Exposes students to a sequence of design investigations that lead to the development of design concepts for critical evaluation and discussion. The intent of this introductory design studio is to expose students to the fundamental design practices that are common to the disciplines of environmental design, planning, urban design and landscape design - that share the responsibility fro shaping the designed environment. Recommended corequisite: ENVD 3122.
  • ENVD 3134 - History and Theory of Environmental Design and the Medium Scale: Precincts
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2019
    Focuses on design projects not in a building envelope, including landscapes, public and private urban spaces, complexes and similarly scaled design projects. Aspects of architectural and planning thinking are interwoven in a landscape concentration.
  • ENVD 3300 - Special Topics: Intermediate Design Lab
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2018 / Spring 2019
    Design lab exploring new and emerging themes in environmental design. May be repeated up to 18 total credit hours.
