PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The Bachelor of Design degree at the School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (SALA) is the only program of its kind in Canada and one of few in the world. It is a hands-on degree where students gain knowledge from the disciplines of Architecture, Landscape Architecture, and Urban Design. The program emphasizes the connectedness of design across multiple scales, and how design impacts the environment. Students are taught through a core design studio sequence that begins with foundations of design. The studio sequence is supported by courses in the history, theory, and technology of architecture and landscape architecture.
