Other opportunities for employment occur in the design sectors of government agencies. Some graduates work freelance on a contractual basis.

Landscape Architecture is concerned with the ordered design of open spaces at all scales: the appearance, atmosphere, and suitability of environment to assure its health and welfare and that of its inhabitants. Your course covers landscape theory and design, professional values, environment theory, graphic and other communication, and landscape construction supported by project and field work.
Professional Recognition
Professional accreditation is being sought from the Australian Institute of Landscape Architects.
