Position Title
Assistant Professor
- Landscape Architecture + Environmental Design
Emily Schlickman is an assistant professor of landscape architecture and environmental design at the University of California, Davis. In a broad sense, her research and creative work sits along two primary axes – 1) how to support climate adaptation through landscape stewardship and land use planning techniques and 2) how to experiment with and critically evaluate emerging tools and technologies for design.
Her current research on wildfire adaptation aims to collectively shift perceptions of and relationships with fire by challenging normative approaches in the field and offering alternatives that foreground care and decolonization.
Prior to the University of California, Davis, Emily worked professionally as a landscape and urban designer and a practice-based researcher.
