The Landscape Architectural Technology program is designed for those who want to create outdoor spaces that enhance public environments. You will design spaces that future generations will use and enjoy.

You will gain proficiency in the latest drafting and modeling tools, including AutoCAD, Adobe Creative Suite, SketchUp and ArcGIS. In addition to hands-on learning, you will have the opportunity to visit some of the places program graduates have designed and participate in an optional co-op placement, which can provide valuable real-world experience. Graduates of the program are eligible to become members of the Alberta Association of Landscape Architects as landscape architectural technology members.
