architects and designers coordinate the analysis, planning,
layout, design, and management of the exterior and interior
landscape. Landscape architects and designers are employed by
design and engineering firms, parks and recreation offices,
landscape contractors, design and build firms, nurseries and
garden centers, arboreta and botanic gardens, and grounds
management firms. A supporting background in computer design
graphics and G.I.S. is helpful. Not all courses in this
