Academics
The Department of Horticulture and Landscape Architecture
is comprised of two academic programs. The horticulture and landscape
architecture programs are two of the larger programs in WSU's
College
of Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences. Horticulture was one of the first
agricultural programs established at WSU. The landscape architecture
program also had an early beginning at WSU when landscape gardening
was offered in 1893. Today the university is one of 45 schools in
the U.S. and Canada whose landscape architecture program is fully
accredited by the American Society of Landscape Architects.
