Master of Landscape Architecture II
The Master of Landscape Architecture II (MLA II) degree is designed for those with an accredited undergraduate professional degree in landscape architecture. The intent of the curriculum is to enable students to pursue two educational goals simultaneously—broadening their knowledge of landscape architecture and related disciplines while developing a specific expertise within the field. The degree requires a minimum of 71 credit hours and typically requires two years to complete, including the submission and defense of a master’s thesis. Typical of post-professional programs, the MLA II is not an accredited degree program.
