The basis of the profile of the graduate of the follow-up master's study is the area of Landscaping - graduates will get deeper acquainted and acquire knowledge and skills related to landscaping design so that they are able to independently perform design activities within landscaping, including spatial and functional optimization, eco-optimization, traceability and spatial planning documentation of towns and municipalities. It also includes environmental impact assessment, solving the problem of common facilities, etc. The aim of education is to acquire additional competencies in the following areas: Here the student can choose the depth of their study according to selected subjects a) Real estate valuation - students will deepen their knowledge in the field real estate valuation and extend them to the basics of environmental economics and economics.
