INFO BOOKLET

This project has been funded with support from the European Commission. This publication [communication] reflects the views only of the author, and the Commission cannot be held responsible for any use which may be made of the information contained therein.

Working in international teams has an increasing relevance

for Landscape Architects. Many competitions are announced

Europe-wide. Transnational developments influence the

everyday work of Landscape Architects which increases the

demand for teaching and research on a European scale. From

September 2013 onwards, the European Masters in Landscape

Architecture (EMiLA) will provide students with a programme

of study specifically developed to address these issues.

We are delighted to welcome you to EMiLA, which is an innovation in Masters-level Landscape

Architectureeducation.ByunitingfiveoftheleadingEuropeanschoolsoflandscape

architecture, the EMiLA partnership brings you a unique learning experience which can be

designed to fit your own aspirations and interests.

EMiLA allows you to be immersed in three very different European environments, which will

enrich your perspective on Landscape Architecture and your development as a practitioner

and designer. Our partners approach Landscape Architecture from technical, aesthetic and

ecological viewpoints, and with perspectives ranging from urban to large-scale agrarian.

This brochure tells you more about our EMiLA philosophy, the EMiLA schools and study options.

We hope that this will help you to create a learning pathway to reflect your own goals as you

progress towards practising as a Landscape Architect.

Once again, we are very pleased to welcome you to EMiLA, and to working with you on

envisioning European landscapes.

1. WELCOME TO EMiLA

This project has been funded with support from the European Commission. This publication [communication] reflects the views only of the author, and the Commission cannot be held responsible for any use which may be made of the information contained therein.

EMiLA is a Masters programme delivered by the five leading schools of Landscape Architecture in

Europe, which are:

•AcademievanBouwkunst,Amsterdam,TheNetherlands.

•UniversitatPolitècnicadeCatalunya,(EscolaTècnicaSuperiord’Arquitecturade

BarcelonaiEscolaSuperiord’AgriculturadeBarcelona,Spain).

• Edinburgh School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture ESALA, Edinburgh

College ofArt,UniversityofEdinburgh,UK.

•FakultatfurLandschaft,LeibnizUniversitat(Hannover),Germany.

•ÉcoleNationaleSupérieurdePaysage,Versailles,France.

More information about each partner is in the following pages. The first and last semesters at the

home institution, the second and third at two other partner institutions. This means that you will

experience three perspectives on Landscape Architecture as a profession, subject and design

medium.

The core vision of EMiLA is to equip graduates with the skills, knowledge and creative attributes

to be at the heart of European and world landscape policy. You will work on real and complex

problems, to support and enhance your professional future. This will enable you to meet the

challenges to Landscape Architecture relating to sustainable design for the whole human

environment. As a reflection of European identity and diversity, the landscape is our living natural

and cultural heritage, whether ordinary or outstanding, urban or rural, on land or on water.

ConceptThe global ecological, social and functional transformations of human settlements and landscapes

call for enhanced integrative and trans-national approaches, as well as interdisciplinary or

transsectoriaL approaches, to innovate for sustainable solutions. The integrative nature of

Landscape Architecture places it at the forefront for holistically addressing major issues on the

socialandphysicaltransformationofland,spaceandtheenvironmentthroughtheDesignProcess.

2. OUR EMiLA PHILOSOPHY

This project has been funded with support from the European Commission. This publication [communication] reflects the views only of the author, and the Commission cannot be held responsible for any use which may be made of the information contained therein.

Landscape Architecture education, research and policy has reached a stage where further doctrinal

development requires the injection of vision, resources and trans-national structural collaborations.

Inordertofacethischallenge,theeducationalsystemmustadaptandsupplyaninterdisciplinary

and transnational approach. EMiLA will be a catalyst for students to benefit from a trans-sectorial

educationinaninternationalenvironment,anddevelopdifferentDesignProcessesandspecific

national knowledge. This will create a new generation of Landscape Architects who can innovate,

develop new concepts, and be flexible. EMiLA was founded to:

•Beahubforstudents,academics,researchers,stakeholders,theEUandregional

policy makers to develop new curricula; and to allow knowledge exchange on human settlements

andcontemporarylandscapesthroughaDesignProcess.

•IdentifyanddevelopkeyEUlandscapetopicsthatarenotcurrentlyclearlyaddressedin

HigherEducation,suchastheimpactofthenewEUCommonAgriculturalPolicyonlandscape,

as well as across-the-board Landscape topics. There will also be comparative reflections on

scale, time and knowledge in territorial transformations. To fulfil this, students will study at three

of the five partner schools, plus the summer-school with all partners. They will receive specific

European-level education by e-learning, and develop their understanding of Europe as a landscape

in evolution.

3. ABOUT OUR PARTNERS

This project has been funded with support from the European Commission. This publication [communication] reflects the views only of the author, and the Commission cannot be held responsible for any use which may be made of the information contained therein.

The Academy of Architecture prepares students to practise spatial design as a discipline at the

interface between fine art, building technology, civil engineering and landscape architecture at a

Masters level. The combination of study and practical experience has been a traditional feature

oftheAcademyofArchitecturesince its foundation in 1908.Studyandworkcomplementone

another to form a full-time vocational programme.

The internal and external curricula are two relatively independent but complementary parts of the

programme. The internal curriculum is particularly aimed at the acquisition of knowledge of the

discipline and of skill in designing. The external curriculum promotes training as a professional.

TheMaster inLandscapeArchitectureatLeibnizUniversitätHannover (FacultyofArchitecture

and Landscape Sciences), is centred on intensively-supervised studios which help the students to

reflect on their own creative activities as well as developments in contemporary society.

Hannover’sacademicphilosophy is tocombineresearchand intuition, thusallowing innovative

design solutions to flourish. The programme focuses on design topics such as public spaces, green

and blue infrastructure, informal settlements and climate change adaptations. The shaping of

the landscape through infrastructure, waterways, renewable energy or traffic systems, as well

as the complex synergies between ecological processes and human interventions, form part of

Hannover’scoredesignandresearch.Traditionally,thehistoryoflandscapearchitectureisanother

by an approach to design that combines rational, intuitive and experience-orientated access to

knowledge in theory, methodology and implementation. Despite its short history, it has already

carried out several research projects funded by external grants and published monographies as

well as scientific articles. All research is linked to teaching through design studios, charettes etc.

ENSP VERSAILLES

ENSP’sareaofspecialisation iswithinproject-orientateddesignteaching instudios. Emphasis

is placed on the physical, geographical and human uses of the landscape. We focus attention on

the opportunities inherent to the site, its surface topography and hydrology as well as invisible

relationships such as the dialogue with history. We strive to develop our thinking by understanding

a‘senseofplace’andthisapproachisfundamentaltoourethosasweconceptualiseandselected

The work finds focus in large scale contemporary landscape issues, such as sub-urban expansion

themes, agrarian transformation in rural and sub rural areas as well a project-orientated

specific EMiLA modules will form part of the curriculum.

The first module is an e-learning module on landscape architecturally related practice in a European

context. This can be studied independently in time and place. Secondly, the EMiLA Summer-school

will take place two exchange semesters in August/September. At the Summer-school, students

and teachers within the EMiLA network work together on contemporary landscape architectural

projects of European relevance.

The courses of the first and the last semester, which are taught in your home institution, follow the

regular master curriculum. For the second and third semester individual learning agreements will

be worked out. This agreement defines which modules will be studied abroad. These modules will

be included in the transcript of your studies.

EMiLA is integrated in the regular master programme of each partner university/school, and

students receive the existing nationally accredited degree. A Diploma Supplement will attest the

two exchange semesters and show that the student followed the specific EMiLA curriculum.

The degree assignment is covered by the rules and requirements of each EMiLA partner. The

consortium aims to reach a multiple or joint degree in the middle term. For further information

about degree and certificate, please contact the national coordinator or visit the websites of the

partner schools/universities.

Summer-school

At this Summerschool students and teachers of the network work together on contemporary

landscape architectural projects of European relevance. During the EMiLA test-phase, students
