Architecture Major, Bachelor of Architecture - Master of Landscape Architecture Preparatory Track


Qualified students in the architecture program may consider a course of study that will give them advanced placement in the Master of Landscape Architecture degree program. Completing this path allows Bachelor of Architecture graduates to gain advanced standing in the graduate landscape architecture program, satisfying degree requirements in one year rather than three. This path only applies to the degree program offered at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. For more information, see the Graduate Catalog.

Requirements for architecture students pursuing this degree path:

The student must also follow the normal procedure and deadline for admission to the Graduate School and to the Master of Landscape Architecture program in the College of Architecture and Design.

uTrack Requirements

Universal Tracking (uTrack) is an academic monitoring system designed to help students stay on track for timely graduation. In order to remain on track, students must complete the minimum requirements for each tracking semester, known as milestones. Milestones include successful completion of specified courses and/or attainment of a minimum GPA. uTrack requirements only affect full-time, degree-seeking students.
