Conway School of Landscape Design (ConwayDesign)

We explore, develop, practice, and teach design of the land that is ecologically and socially sustainable.

In the process we: - provide graduates with the basic knowledge and skills necessary to practice the planning, design, and management of the land that respects nature as well as humanity; - develop ecological awareness, understanding, respect, and accommodation in its students and project clients; - produce projects that fit human use to natural conditions.

The school’s mission guides decision-making at every level: who is hired, what projects are undertaken, how courses are structured, and what offices and sites are visited on field trips. While the program is thoroughly based on ecological knowledge and practices, Conway’s educational focus is on design of the land rather than environmental science.
