ADVISORY BOARD

The Landscape Architecture program's Advisory Board provides important connections to stakeholders in the community at large, and informs about changes and new opportunities in the profession. Board members represent a variety of perspectives that make up the Landscape Architecture community, including city and regional planning, state agencies, the campus, local elected officials, landscape architects in private practice, conservation organizations, developers and alumni.

Board members serve as key advisors to the Chair and faculty, sharing their ideas and expertise, and making recommendations on the strategic plan for the program, curriculum and emerging trends in the industry.
