The design of urban environments requires conceptualization skills at various scales, proposing solutions and their implementation. It is also required to develop familiarity with heterogeneous human populations, dense building stocks, natural and environmental assets, a specialized labor force, and a shared urban identity, as well as to build an ability to address these issues in design. Finally, it is necessary to master the appropriate use of natural and artificial materials.
Urban projects, of which landscape design is an integral part, have constituted the world's most intriguing design products during the last two decades. These projects and their implementation have opened discussions leading to contemporary design theories, indicating that the integration of landscape architecture and urban design will further prosper in the future. Addressing urban context issues with those of landscape architecture, the department is the first to offer an undergraduate degree. The growing number of academic staff includes faculty who come from various disciplinary backgrounds, including landscape architecture, city planning, and architecture
Unlike other landscape architecture programs, the Department of Urban Design and Landscape Architecture at Bilkent University is affiliated with a design faculty focusing on studios. Field trips support the design studios and the technical and theoretical courses that make up the curriculum to study various urban contexts as their project sites. These trips range from intra-city daily tours to international summer programs.
