Landscape architecture has experienced the period of agricultural and industrial civilization and is moving forward into the ecological civilization and information age. Modern landscape architecture has the characteristics of comprehensiveness in connotation, crossing and pluralism in extension, full coverage in scale, periodicity in process, and unity of both inside and outside. Therefore, modern landscape architecture education has higher requirements for cultivating talents’ basic knowledge structure, ability quality, and emotional quality. Taking the Landscape architecture major of Changsha University of Science & Technology as an example, this paper explores the reform path of the talent training system from five aspects such as core consolidation, base consolidation, ability strengthening, boundary expansion, and characteristic determination, and puts forward the viewpoints and methods of modern landscape architecture education, such as redefining the core basic theory of the profession, reconstructing the teaching system centered on landscape architecture planning and design, reforming teaching methods, and inspiring love and responsibility.
