Landscape Your Future
Landscape architects create attractive and functional designs to meet the
needs of residential and commercial property owners. This field combines art and
science and deals with the complex relationships between man-made features and
natural environments. The Landscape Architecture Program can provide you
with the academic and professional training you need to design a niche for
yourself in the industry.
Landscape architect technicians and designers are employed by
engineering firms, parks and recreation departments, landscape contractors,
design and build firms, nurseries and garden centers, botanical gardens, and
grounds management firms. Landscape architect technicians work with
architects, city planners, civil engineers, hydrologists, surveyors,
contractors, and environmental engineers. The national employment projection for
landscape architects and related fields is expected to increase faster than
average through 2016.
Our curriculum covers topics from landscape planning and planting design
to cost estimating and computer drafting and design. All of our courses are
taught by professionals who pride themselves in sound coursework and take a
genuine interest in your studies and your career plans.
