Graduate Diploma in Landscape Design

About this program
Adelaide University's Graduate Diploma in Landscape Design is the mid-point exit award within the Master of Landscape Architecture, and covers the same core content over a shorter timeframe for students who exit early or want a standalone credential. With our Master of Landscape Architecture, you can design landscape architecture projects that honour community health and wellbeing, while championing diversity and sustainability. Bring your designs to life in our supervised fabrication and prototyping workshop, experimenting with space and materials using analogue and digital technologies. Learn to use surveying equipment, AR and VR facilities and industry-specific software, including remote sensing (Lidar) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Access historical architectural records in our internationally recognised architecture museum. Learn about planting, design and horticulture for arid regions in our unique Waite Arboretum. It has over 2,500 specimens representing more than 800 species in 200 genera, all growing under natural annual rainfall of 624mm.
