"Becoming an Architect will inspire future architects, career consultants, and human resources professionals alike, providing all the information you'll need to make intelligent decisions about careers in architecture." --From the Foreword by Helene Combs Dreiling, FAIA, 2014 AIA National President Starting a career as an architect is an exciting prospect, but it's important to do your research before you take the plunge. The third edition of Becoming an Architect is an update to the best-selling guide and highlights the risks and rewards on the path to a career as an architect.

The first time people hear the term landscape architect they usually imagine someone who rolls out lawns and plants trees and bushes. Landscape architects do that, but there is a lot more to this work than deciding where greenery should be planted. Think of it this way: an architect designs buildings while a landscape architect designs the spaces around the outside of buildings. Landscape architecture is a blend of art and science. If you love nature and the outdoors, have artistic flair, and like to work with your hands, this career might be for you. It also requires strong writing and research skills, and an aptitude for math and science, especially engineering and environmental sciences. With these skills and a bachelor s degree in landscape architecture, you could be the professional who analyzes, plans, designs, manages, preserves, and rehabilitates land. It is important and satisfying work that is in demand today and will continue to be so in the future."
