Bachelor in Paysage

Ecole Nationale Supérieure de la Nature et du Paysage in Blois, France, offers the Paysage (Landscape Architecture) programme, a bachelor's-level formation lasting three years, taught in French and starting in September at 178 EUR per year. Landscape architecture and design studies address the conception, planning and management of outdoor spaces — from urban parks, public squares and private gardens to rural landscapes, riverbanks and natural sites. Students engage with ecology, botany and the natural sciences to understand the living environments they work with, while design studio work develops spatial reasoning, drawing and representation skills alongside project methodology. History and theory of landscape and garden design situate contemporary practice in a longer tradition stretching from formal French gardens to contemporary ecological approaches. Students also learn to respond to environmental, social, urban planning and climate-related challenges through design interventions. Site analysis, technical drawing and the use of design tools are essential components of the training. Graduates work as landscape architects and designers in public authorities, private design offices, urban planning agencies, regional development bodies and environmental consultancies. The profession contributes to urban renewal, ecological restoration, infrastructure greening and sustainable development projects, and professionals are increasingly sought as cities and regions seek to adapt to environmental change.
