Licensure Notification
This program typically leads to licensure and is accredited by the Landscape Architectural Accreditation Board (LAAB) to meet the educational requirements for licensure in the United States and its territories. USU has not determined if the program curriculum meets all the licensure requirements for individual jurisdictions, as each sets its own requirements for licensure and may have additional requirements such as a supervised employment period. Students wishing to work within the United States should review the qualifications for their intended jurisdiction, and complete the LARE exam for that state or territory.
