Landscape Architect: One of the 50 best careers for 2010 according to U.S. News PDF  | Print |

Landscape Architect : As one of the 50 best careers of 2010, this should have strong growth over the next decade

The rundown:

Planning the layout of flower beds and colorful blossoms can be part of your work as a landscape architect, but the job is much more than floristry. You'll work with architects and engineers from the start of a project to determine the best placement for buildings, driveways, roads, and sidewalks, as well as the best areas for fountains, flowers, shrubs, and trees. Environmental conservation and restoration play an increasingly important role in landscape architecture, so you may find yourself working with environmental scientists or foresters when planning a site. While you'll spend lots of time focused on your client's wants and needs, you'll also have to ensure that the project is in line with government regulations. While working on site plans, you may also be responsible for sketches, models, video simulations of the finished site, photographs, and cost estimates of the work. You might work on wetlands restoration, college campuses, or shopping centers.
