Dissertation and Exhibition introduces students to the diverse realm of landscape architectural research. The unit is structured into two distinct elements: the Research Methods workshop and the individual dissertation.
Following weekly exercises in which landscape and architecture students worked together, students chose a theme to focus on further and to develop and expand on it using any of the methods discussed in the seminars. Building on the methods learned in the Research Methods workshop, students develop and define their own research question, methodology and analysis of their chosen area of interest in their individual Dissertations. The projects are supported by a series of interdisciplinary methodological lectures and a series of landscape focussed research talks delivered by invited guests.
