Vision & Mission
VISION
We design for the public good. Cal Poly Pomona’s Department of Landscape Architecture prepares students to become leaders and change-makers in their communities through community-led, nature-based, climate-adapted design.
MISSION
Our polytechnic, hands-on landscape architecture education empowers students with the knowledge, skills, and values to succeed in careers that shape the natural and built environments through design. We work with community partners on real-world solutions toward social, environmental, and climate justice in Southern California and beyond. Our alumni—known for their technical expertise and creative solutions to pressing issues—work in firms, non-profits, public agencies, organizations, and industry around the world.
