Landscape Design Schools
Interested in being the next designer of a park or arboretum for your community? How about being the person selected to design the landscape scheme for a greenbelt that is part of the latest housing project in your town? Landscape design schools offer courses and degree programs that train horticultural artists and architects that create ideas ranging from large, stunning projects like regional parks to small, high-quality gardens for homes and businesses.
Landscape design schools typically offer a broad curriculum for residential site development, but can also specialize in commercial preparation. Courses can lead to certificates that attest to your skills in residential design, site assessment, developing and marketing a landscape design business, evaluating plant types, managing the landscape environment, and performing nursery work. Courses can be useful to landscape contractors, home and garden retail sales persons, arborists, and nursery personnel.
Designing Your Own Professional Landscape
Landscape design schools also can offer professional-development courses that help you form successful client relationships for new and ongoing work, manage a staff or landscape design team, work efficiently with subcontractors, and develop portfolios that help sell your services.
Courses can range from land planning and soil analysis, landscape design theory and history, water source and plant analysis, historic preservation, environmental aesthetics, designing with native plants, wall and step materials, grading and driveway criteria materials, applications for wood and stone, design rendering and presentation. You'll learn about shrubs, trees, flowers, and ground covers.
Graduates often seek work with landscape architectural companies, full-service landscaping firms, home and garden shops, and plant nurseries. Many develop their own home-based landscaping design companies. |
