Portfolio
Upload portfolio as a single pdf through the portfolio credential on MyStatus.
The portfolio helps the reviewers determine your potential to perform successfully in a studio based design curriculum.
In order to review each application fairly and accurately, the reviewing committee requires evidence in one or more categories:
The level of creative skill you possess in any medium.
The extent of your interest in the proposed degree program, made evident through your abilities in composition, physical form-making, or perception of the environment.
Your ability to translate ideas into physical form, even if in simple terms such as drawing.
FORMAT
Portfolios should be designed and formatted for on-screen viewing. Maximum file size is 25 MB.
ATTRIBUTION
For each project, list the applicant’s name, the project’s date, and an indication as to whether the project was academic, office-related, or personal. In the case of collaborative or professional work, the contribution by the applicant must be precisely described.
ORGANIZATION
The organization of the portfolio is a design exercise. It should be clear, succinct, and thoughtfully composed to best reflect your interests and skills. The quality of the work is of greater importance than quantity.
CONTENT
Photographic or photo static reproductions must show work in the visual arts or design that has been executed by the applicant. The work should include examples of freehand drawings, and three-dimensional work executed by the applicant. The committee place emphasis on drawing skills.
Those applying a post-professional or second professional degree are expected to submit examples of work demonstrating their ability to pursue study at an advanced level. Applicants are expected to present a high quality portfolio showing well-developed graphic skills and a well-developed sense of design, space, form and volume. Show at least three steps of design development in a specific project and your progression/thought process. Photographs of models help and should be used when possible.
A portfolio helps the reviewers associate your desire to enter graduate landscape architecture school with your potential to perform successfully in a studio based design curriculum. Photographs of landscapes (including travel photographs) as examples of creative work are not acceptable except from studio arts applicants with a major in photography.
The committee assumes your portfolio and its format represent your best abilities in design.

Today’s urban environments confront increasingly complex social and ecological challenges in which overlapping, dynamic systems often reveal competing priorities. From demographic shifts and infrastructure needs to climate change and obdurate development policies, these distinct, yet interrelated variables require technical sophistication and ecological acumen in order to create sustainable landscapes that address social needs, provide ecosystem services, and enhance a sense of place.
Recognizing that these shifts shape our public spaces, the Graduate Program in Landscape Architecture frames these concerns as guiding factors in the design and construction of the urban landscape. In this manner, those spaces by which the landscape is defined—such as infrastructure systems, urban watersheds, industrial sites, suburban communities, and city fabric—become the laboratories for the program’s educational focus.
Working in conjunction with allied design disciplines represented within the school—including Architecture, Urban Design, Community and Regional Planning, and Historic Preservation—and with the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, the professional curriculum emphasizes interdisciplinary endeavors that serve the needs of the community, the state, and the society at large. The program’s pedagogy situates design as a process of inquiry, whereby the coordinated design curriculum introduces a set of representation, spatial, theoretical, and material practices by which to integrate the landscape’s structure, function, and change over time. The curriculum places an emphasis on design of the built environment including its social dimension, sensory experience, and ecological systems. Working from measure to agency, data to decision, the pedagogy positions design as a synthetic endeavor that evolves as much from context and speculation as it does from questions of technique, beauty, and delight.
Located within a dynamic school, university, and city, the program fosters dialogue between students and faculty, as well as students within and across design cohorts. With small student to faculty ratios in all classes, the program cultivates intensive examination of the discipline's critical issues and challenges. In support of these efforts, the program's advanced studio sequence and seminars engage international sites and partnerships in order to expose students to the scope of landscape concerns and design thinking within various contexts.
Research and work advanced by the program’s students and faculty reflect the above aims. From urban streams to urban forests, parks to cemeteries, streetscapes to city blocks, historic landscapes to military training grounds, the program endeavors to integrate aesthetics (what a landscape looks like) with performance (what a landscape does).
The Landscape Architecture Program at the University of Texas as Austin offers two degree programs:
Master of Landscape Architecture, First Professional Degree
Master of Landscape Architecture, Post-Professional Degree
