Faculty Architecture & the Built Environment

The faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment has a leading role in education and research worldwide. The driving force behind the faculty's success is its robust research profile combined with the passion and creativity of its student body and academic community. It is a place that is buzzing with life from early in the morning until late at night, with four thousand people studying, working, designing, conducting research and acquiring and disseminating knowledge. Academics and students have been working on improving the built environment with the help of a broad set of disciplines, including architectural design, urban planning, building technology, social sciences, process management, and geo-information science. The faculty works closely with other faculties, universities, private parties, and the public sector, and has an extensive network in the Netherlands as well as internationally.

The more than 100 members of the Urbanism department are united in contributing to the Urbanism mission, namely to advance, share and apply knowledge on how the built environment interacts with humans and their behaviour, and how design, planning and engineering interventions can better satisfy human and societal needs. Here 'advance' refers to our research, 'share' to our education and dissemination and 'apply' to our conviction that Urbanism needs to be an action-oriented, forward-looking practice. The department has a global reputation for excellence in research and education and is particularly known for the 'Delft Approach' that brings together the creativity of design with academic research methods. This integral urbanism enjoys high international esteem in professional practice, research and education.

Landscape Architecture has been a part of the faculty's curriculum since the 1940s, when Jan Bijhouwer filled a lectureship. This was later expanded and formalised as a specialty within the Faculty of Architecture, led for nearly 20 years by Frans Maas as Professor. In the late 20th and early 21st century, the chair of Landscape Architecture made great strides under the leadership of Clemens Steenbergen. The group published several internationally recognised books on the fundamentals of the profession. This work finally led to the decision of the University to offer a complete Master Track of Landscape Architecture, which started in September 2010, shortly after the retirement of Steenbergen who was followed up by Dirk Sijmons.
The ability to spatially organise and architecturally process networks and infrastructures make landscape architecture indispensable for current spatial issues. The profession encompasses dwelling, work, infrastructure, recreation, nature and water landscapes at various scales and at different planning levels: from architectural ensembles including the garden and urban fragments to metropolitan park and water systems. In practice, landscape architecture plays a role in all these areas, with varying intensity and in various stages and plan forms. Exactly this 'coordinating role', in a world becoming more and more complex, is needed.

The landscape architecture research programme Landscape Compositions and Systems aims to establish a critical body of knowledge, which can activate and renew actual landscape architecture as an open and inventive design discipline, empowering it to deal with contemporary spatial challenges. The research group focuses on strategy development and design exploration of landscape compositions and systems in the built environment and is exploring and developing the foundations - theory, methods and tools - of the discipline. Landscape Architecture at Delft (next to Wageningen University (WUR) with its origin in the Life Sciences) has its own signature and operates between and with urban design and architecture in order to anchor architectural quality in the (urban) landscape. An approach that keeps up with an international tendency of architecture faculties to unite the entire range of scale and of spatial design in their curriculum.
