The MSc in Landscape and Wellbeing is ideal for:
- Design practitioners who want to understand how evidence-based research can inform designs for wellbeing.
- Recent graduates who want to develop a greater understanding of the links between landscapes and human wellbeing.
- A student without a design background who wants to explore the role of research and design in shaping landscapes for better wellbeing.
- A curious student who is interested in how communities are designed and how this could be done to improve wellbeing for all residents.
This one-year MSc programme takes an innovative and interdisciplinary approach to understanding the importance of the environment for human health and wellbeing.
Drawing on the most advanced theoretical and methodological research in the field, it is delivered by an expert academic team, including members of OPENspace, the international research centre for inclusive access to outdoor environments.
The programme is aimed at academics and practitioners working in landscape architecture, planning, design, geography, public health, psychology, epidemiology, horticulture and ecology.
It is designed to help you understand the evidence base on salutogenic landscapes (those that support and enhance human health and wellbeing), translate research into practice, guide practical environmental interventions, and assess their effectiveness.
