Faculty of Landscape Architecture, Horticulture and Forestry
The departments of Landscape Architecture and Horticulture evolved from the "Christian Reichart" School of Horticulture in 1991 and merged with the Thuringian University of Applied Sciences for Forestry Schwarzburg in 2007 to form a joint faculty. Our teaching facilities and outdoor areas are located at Leipziger Straße 77.
Departments
Faculty Committees
The faculty constitutes a self-governing unit of the university and is managed by the dean's office.
Other committees deal with matters relating to organization, studies, examinations, etc. and are made up of professors, staff and students.
You can therefore exert influence by being elected to the committees of the faculty or even those of the University of Applied Sciences.
Our research is interdisciplinary and application-oriented. Thanks to the collaboration of lecturers from different disciplines and the intensive networking between the departments of Landscape Architecture, Horticulture and Forestry at the same campus ("Green Education, Skills and Transfer Centre"), we are able to find holistic solutions to scientific problems. In addition to close and long-standing contacts in the field, our research activities are largely influenced by national and international research collaborations.
The focus of our research is on sustainable development in its ecological, economic and social dimensions, for example in the areas of sustainable land use, regenerative energies, biodiversity/biodiversity conservation and wood logistics, as well as cultural landscape development.Our faculty primarily concentrates on the research area III "Sustainable planning and construction, land use and resource management".
A core element of our infrastructure is our "green campus" in Leipziger Straße, which includes a modern experimental greenhouse (2,400 square metres), large outdoor experimental and demonstration areas (3.5 hectares) and a landscape teaching park with historic trees and shrubs (arboretum).
Since October 2016, our "Green Campus" has also been the location and cooperation partner of the "Competence Centre Natura 2000", the coordination and qualification point for a unique infrastructure of Natura 2000 stations, with which Thuringia is breaking new ground in the protection of Europe's natural heritage.

What are Alumni?
In the Roman Empire, an alumnus or alumna was a pupil or a foster son/daughter. Nowadays, the term alumni is used differently. It can refer to all former students of a university or higher education college and also to all those associated with such an institution.
