Abstract: A conversion master’ programme (CM) aims at providing graduates from (first cycle) programmes in neighbouring disciplines to gain a professional qualification in landscape architecture (ECLAS, 2010), Developing a CM or a conversion course in combination with a regular master in landscape architecture or independently might provide good opportunities for graduates of neighbouring disciplines to convert themselves to competent landscape architects. An interdisciplinary landscape approach is needed for addressing complex environmental and societal challenges. This raised interest of students and planners for acquiring landscape architecture competences. In some countries there is a lack of full-landscape programmes, in other countries the number of bachelor students and the successive number of master graduates are not enough to meet the demand for professional landscape architects. As a consequence, many tasks calling for a landscape approach are performed by architects, foresters, geographers, who often lack specific landscape architecture competences. Landscape offices in Germany and the UK have trouble filling vacancies. The InnoLAND project explores the state of affairs and discusses the advantages, entry requirements, admission process, duration, content and structure of CMs. Selected graduates of building and interior architecture, spatial and urban planning, rural development studies, as well as graduates of landscape ecology, agricultural science, horticulture, bio-engineering can be eligible for admission. For some other disciplines it depends on the focus of the study programme as well as the capabilities of the student. A CM should have at least 180 ECTS of study of which 60 ECTS is allocated for a conversion track that could be different for graduates of the design and planning disciplines and the disciplines that relate to ecosystems, vegetation, planting water management. Modules for the conversion track can be taken from the EULAND21 modules. A CM should have a professional orientation and focus on the main competences for landscape architecture.
