Overview
The Landscape and Wellbeing offered by The University of Edinburgh provides a unique opportunity for academics and practitioners working in landscape architecture, planning, design, geography, public health, psychology, epidemiology, horticulture and ecology to understand the evidence base and to operationalise the planning and design of salutogenic landscape.
The programme offers access to the latest research in the field, drawing on the most advanced theoretical and methodological approaches to understanding the subject.
You will be encouraged to translate research into practice, develop a better understanding of the evidence base to inform your work and guide more effective environmental interventions and their evaluation.
