Landscape Engineering Education in Iran

Today, the significance of urban green spaces as one of the indicators of sustainable development and urban environment is evident. This is true because green spaces are one of most important places provided for the leisure time of citizens. Green space provides direct benefits, impacts the minds of citizens, and creates spiritual comfort. Consequently, addressing education in landscape engineering in Iran is critical, as it is the only field addressing these matters in undergraduate education. This paper about landscape engineering education has considered the challenges of education in this field, nearly two decades after studies commenced at some universities in Iran, and reviews strategies to improve the quality and quantity of curriculum offered. Overall, this study is a subset of observational studies (non-interventional), and the type of study, the qualitative nature of the study, and the type of qualitative research is descriptive. It provides a critical review of academic training in the field of landscape engineering and demonstrates how universities deal with the lack of qualitative and quantitative growth in this field.
