Architecture or landscape architecture (some questions)?

Boyce Gilhooly: You are able to have your own business with either profession, and in fact, you can combine them by doing a degree in architecture and a master's in landscape architecture. Or visa versa. Landscape architecture is the #1 choice for people who want environmental careers. They do that first, then do any of the other majors that interest you. You can be in business for yourself the fastest in landscape architecture, right after you pass the state test. You can do that in California and it will give you the right to practice in any other state and most countries. I don't know the regulations for architecture. The best college to get your degree in architecture is Cal Berkeley -California University of Berkeley. The #3 place to get your degree in landscape architecture is just an hour and fifteen minutes away at the University of California at Davis. Number one is Harvard, two is at Cornel, and the #3 is Texas A and M. A lot of your questions are best asked to ! the professors at those colleges, who have the most experience in those areas. They get to know you in class and can offer you a more personal judgemet. What I can tell you about architecture is that the more degres you get, the better your chance is to get a position in prestigious businesses that get international jobs and the top jobs we all hear about on the evening news. You'll do the best in whatever kind of practice you want to have by going to Berkeley. If you have more questions you may email me through my profile here at Yahoo! Answers....Show more
