Its importance is reflected in the ten hours per week allocated to each studio. Through the studio, students learn hands-on how to resolve landscape architecture issues. Through team working and under the supervision of a studio master, students learn design and plan spaces for a specific use to demonstrate their creativity and thinking.<\/p>\n Workshops are conducted in or out of classroom and are for short design exercise. It is hands-on exercise that afford students to produce designs in a short space of time. Generally, the workshops are carried out in small groups of two to five students and it can be joint-exercise with other universities. For example, the design workshops are carried out in ALAM (Assembly of Landscape Architecture Students) and Putrajaya Flower and Garden Festival competition.<\/p>\n Students are exposed to different software such as ArcGIS, AutoCAD, Photoshop, Sketch-up and 3D Max to assist them in preparation of design landscape master plan and construction drawings. The department has two laboratories: landscape laboratory and landscape computer laboratory.<\/p>\n In design studios, students are often exposed to real situations including projects. For example, in landscape urban design studio, students conduct site inventory and analysis as part of the planning process. Students have to do field survey to gather information on site factors, policies and social condition of the place.<\/p>\n The industrial training aims to develop the skills, knowledge and attitudes needed to be a professional landscape architect. The objective is to strengthen the understanding of the theoretical principles, technical and design skills through practical experience. All third year students are required to undergo 24-weeks industrial training at landscape architect or relevant practitioner offices or a government agency of their choice. At the end of the training, students are required to submit an Industrial Training Report and log book to the department for assessment.<\/p>\n [\/restab]\n<\/p>\n [restab title=”Student Academic Assessment<\/strong>“]\n<\/p>\n Student Academic Assessment<\/strong><\/p>\n A variety of assessment methods are used to match the learning outcomes of programme and students learning styles.<\/p>\n \n[\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The programme was designed and implemented since 1993 which was inspired on the core understanding of Man as the steward of the Earth and based on the design and built philosophy.
