Third semester focuses on building the ability to comprehend complex networks that exist within a region, pertaining to the natural environment, cultural significance or human imprints, cultural practices & socio economic set up.
Subjects in this semester aim at developing a deeper understanding of conservation & planning theories, management techniques & frameworks and environmental legislations. These insights equip students with the skill sets, analytical ability, technical knowhow to explore Studio exercises that are typically set in the context of Nature & City or Nature in the city. By & large the projects are set in the backdrop of growing environmental concerns, pressure on natural resources, shifting fringe lines & changing/ altering landscapes by urban developments.
The Culmination of the two years of landscape education, is looked at as an opportunity to identify one’s own inclination towards certain aspects & scales of work that one can explore as their research as well as Thesis Project. Such an opportunity provides the student to hone one's ability to integrate & apply the theoretical knowledge & research and demonstrate it through an individual design project .
