Life After Undergrad
I have noticed quite a few students using Land8Lounge....as well as a fair number of young-ish professionals. Not that I am an old man…but I would like to share some lessons learned regarding decisions made after completing my undergraduate study in landscape architecture.
When I completed my undergraduate program, I was pretty unsure about what I wanted to do with my life. I really wasn't ready to work, and at the time school and studio in particular were incredibly fun and fulfilling. So, ins… Continue

Isaac Hametz said… - Hi Matt,
For the past two and a half years I've worked in the non-profit sector advancing urban environmental issues such as reclaiming neglected public open spaces, community empowerment & development, and zoning laws centered on creating mixed use/stacked cityscapes. What I've come to realize is that the unique intersection of communal and environmental development that I know and love in the non-profit world also exists in the field landscape architecture. That being the case, I feel compelled to learn how to address these issues from the academic side of the fence as well.
To that end, I am searching for an MLA program that will allow me to engage a diversity of disciplines including landscape architecture, community development, and urban and environmental planning. I've noticed you're active in the RISD discussions and are a graduate of the program. Any chance you can share with me a little bit about the school's design philosophy (more than just the standard stuff they feed you on the website). What kind of practical experience do you get at RISD? Are there opportunities to engage the local community and really get your hands dirty? Do the studio sessions and design projects reflect the complexities of real world situations (i.e. environmental, political, and social factors)? I noticed the school has a nature lab - how much do they engage ecological design (permaculture, regenerative landscapes, etc)?
Thanks in advance for all your help (I realize its a lot of questions)!
Cheers,
Isaac

Beth Scott said… - Hey Matt -- I'd love to learn more about your new biz.... I saw your name on the Lounge and realized you're another DW alumnus. I think we met during my brief tenure there, but forgive me if I've forgotten the details. I'm teaching full time now and practicing on the side and indeed, it's a busy life but I can't think of any way I'd rather spend my time.
