本文概述了5个美国风景园林学位从5年改革为4年在专业课程安排、大学核心通识课程要求、实习要求等方面的情况。这场教育改革工作的最主要的原因多数来自大学内部教务行政单位的要求。该要求源于大学所在州的命令,都要求一个本科学位必须在4年内完成120个学分。其次,这场变革还要归根于2008—2009年的全球金融风暴,其触发了对高等教育在责任和效率方面提出更高的要求。虽然有些大学可以为继续实施五年制本科课程寻求免责,但是目前的五年制学位自身也正面临着很大的挑战,尤其在招生方面。文章内容还包含了美国风景园林学科认证委员会关于该教改的一些观点。最后,笔者们就风景园林本科学位应该在多长时间内完成提出观点。
This article outlines the five U.S. landscape architecture degrees that have changed from five years to four years in the professional curriculum, the university core general education curriculum requirements, and internship requirements. The most important reason for this education reform work comes from the requirements of the university’s internal academic administration unit. The request stems from the order of the state where the university is located and both require that an undergraduate degree must complete 120 credits within 4 years. Second, the change is also rooted in the global financial turmoil of 2008-2009, which triggered higher demands on higher education in terms of responsibility and efficiency. Although some universities may seek exemption from continuing to implement five-year undergraduate courses, the current five-year degree itself is also facing great challenges, especially in enrollment. The content of the article also contains some views of the American Academy of Landscape Architecture Certification Committee on this reform. In the end, the authors put forward their views on how long the undergraduate degrees in landscape architecture should be completed.
