European Universities and Associations of Landscape Architecture
EU-Teach |
|
The project "Implementation of relevant European teaching contents in the studies of landscape architecture" (EU teach) has started on the 1 November 2010. European universities of landscape architecture and associations of landscape architecture run the project for 12 months in cooperation.
|
 |
The European Union offers various opportunities for landscape architects. Furthermore the work of landscape architects is influenced more and more by specifications of the European Union. To enable good chances on the European employment market it is
essential that the European Universities enlarge their teaching offers with European relevant teaching contents. These "European relevant teaching-contents" are e. g. directives, guidance or the standards for competition and tendering. A list of relevant European teaching contents was achieved on the midterm meeting.
