Head of the Department,
Yaroslav Henyk
The Department of Landscape Architecture, Garden and Park Management and Urban Ecology was established in 2004 on the basis of the Department of Ecology and Landscape Architecture of the Ukrainian State Forestry University (now National Forestry University of Ukraine).
The department is located in the building of the former Regional Forest School, established in October 1874. The outstanding scientists G. Strzelecki, V. Tinetsky, S. Sokolovsky, M. Ratsiborsky, V. Shafer and others worked here.
The department trains specialists in two specialties: urban planning (specialization "landscape architecture") and landscape gardening. Here is formed a scientific school of urban ecology and phytomelioration, which are areas of ecology. International conferences are regularly held on these issues and scientific articles are published.
The department has educational and scientific laboratories of soil science and landscape architecture.
The employees of the department take part in the development and implementation of projects of landscape decision of the territories, in the inventory of plantations of general and limited use. The team (headed by Prof. V. Kucheryavy) worked out the projects for the reconstruction of Lviv parks (Stryisky, Ivan Franko, Zalizna Woda, Lychakivsky, Bodnarivka, Lewandivsky, Sknylivsky). In 2004 on the territory of Khmelnytsky National University the Botanical Garden was established according to the project of the department.
From 1992 to 2015, Professor Volodymyr Kucheryavy was the head of the department. Now the Department of Landscape Architecture, Garden and Park Management and Urban Ecology is headed by Doctor of Agricultural Sciences, Associate Professor Yaroslav Henyk.
The academic staff of the department organizes research work among the student youth. Students' scientific works have repeatedly won prizes at all-Ukrainian scientific works competitions.
The department constantly maintains close links with higher education institutions of other countries.
