How does Landscape Architecture differ from the Landscape Horticulture concentration Landscape Design and Contracting at CSU?
Landscape Architecture is concerned with planning, design and construction specification of the landscape with a small percentage of landscape architects operating in the area of design/build (approximately 7 % of practicing landscape architects). The landscape Architecture program is fully accredited through the Landscape Architecture Accrediting Board (LAAB) of the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA). Landscape Horticulture’s concentration in Landscape Design and Contracting is concerned with the profession and science of landscape contracting, with a strong emphasis on plants in the landscape. The Program is accredited through the Professional Landcare Network (PLANET).
