Landscape architecture encompasses the design, analysis, planning, management, and stewardship of sustainable environments. Landscape architects design and engage the landscape across a wide range of projects and scales - from garden to plaza, to park, to entire regional landscapes.

Graduates can look forward to many employment and professional opportunities including work in private practice, multidisciplinary firms, and public agencies.
