Student Work
Through various studios, students have the opportunity to apply their accumulated knowledge of design, plant material, site engineering and sustainability to actual sites in the Pittsburgh region. In addition to studio projects, a required segment of their curriculum includes community field work through design with installation of those designs. This field work can utilize Chatham University's Arboretum, a local community service project or Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, or a combination thereof for a total of 160 hours. In addition to the required coursework, students prepare a thesis or thesis design project in their area of interest. Copies of graduate theses can be found in the Chatham University Jennie King Mellon Library, with abstracts located under graduate research below.
