Abstract
The subject of modern landscape architecture in the Netherlands has a history of more than one hundred years. During this period, have not only many well-known landscape architects been educated, but also a modern and characteristically Dutch teaching system for landscape architecture has been developed. This article looks at three universities in the Netherlands that have master and doctoral degrees in landscape architecture in order to analyse their teaching and research systems. Firstly, by comparing the curricula, research specialisations and summer schools of each university, this article summarises the framework of the Dutch landscape architecture education system. Secondly, by analysing the different research themes selected in the graduation projects and theses in recent years, this article explores the practice and research trends within Dutch landscape architecture. Finally, the analysis results are combined with the feedback of Chinese students studying landscape architecture in the Netherlands to discuss the differences in practice and research between Chinese and Dutch landscape architecture educations. This article aims to learn from the diverse as well as interconnected landscape architecture teaching system in the Netherlands and provide suggestions for the current landscape architecture teaching system in China.
