UCL is a comprehensive university offering, in the context of the present position, the opportunity of cross-disciplinary research collaborations with the architects, architectural engineers, civil engineers and with the other members of the university community interested by the various dimensions of landscape architecture. The LOCI Faculty organises teaching to train architects, urbanists, and architectural engineers. It is internationally recognised for its expertise in the domains of architectural theory and design, urban design and planning.<\/p>\n

Teaching<\/h3>\n

Research<\/h3>\n

The successful candidate will carry on academic research in the area of landscape architecture theory and composition, including its preservation, cultural, technical, aesthetic, environmental and design dimensions, specifically on topics including:
\nconstructive criticism of various landscape concepts in the context of public, private, or academic projects
\ncoordination between theoretical concepts and concrete processes of composing landscapes,
\ncomplementarities between landscape and environmental processes (energy resources, climatic movements, orohydrographic issues);
\narticulating current and potential landscape design, urban design and landscape planning.
\nExperience as a professional designer in landscape architecture will be considered as an advantage during selection of candidates.<\/p>\n
