The aim of the course:
The course aims to provide the students with knowledge on planting design and their applications, to enable them to understand how plants can be used in landscape, to help them use their knowledge to understand the visual, ecological and functional properties of plantings design.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : summarise the properties of planting design.1,2,3,4,121,3,6
PO - 2 : classify design principles.2,3,4,10,111,3,6
PO - 3 : apply various planting techniques in design schemes.1,2,3,4,111,3,6
PO - 4 : evaluate the results of information in practices.1,2,3,4,111,3,6
PO - 5 : adapt the results and outcome of any lecture practices to landscape design process.2,3,4,111,3,6
