This specialisation is a collaboration between AHO and UiT. In the Arctic/subarctic landscape and territorial studies the local is the point of departure while establishing global landscape laboratory that emphasizes arctic/subarctic conditions. Natural and anthropogenic changes affect both societies and ecosystems. This Tromsø-based specialisation aims to investigate and create new knowledge on how to protect, design and develop highly vulnerable landscapes within changing environments and communities. The education is studio-based in a continous and close interaction with international teachers, practitioners and researchers. This educational milieu is based at UiT’s Academy of Arts, and operates in close collaboration with the rest of UiT. Thus, including a breadth of academic knowledge and promoting constant experimentation with diverse landscape media. UiT provides access to a diverse palette of tools and shared resources for the students in landscape architecture.The studio-based teaching differentiates between urban, landscape and territorial practices.
