From private gardens to parks, open spaces and commercial developments, landscaping is now a multi-million pound industry utilising a wide range of skills.  Practical knowledge of construction techniques, materials and plants combine with creativity, management, and business acumen to enable the modern landscaper to design, build and maintain the gardens and green spaces of tomorrow.



Core modules will introduce you to the underpinning horticultural principles of landscaping before specialist modules develop your design, management and business knowledge. Sustainability, contemporary issues and technology are included to ensure graduates are prepared for the new challenges that face the built environment.
