Univerity of Michigan: Landscape Architecture Centennial Celebration

Landscape Architecture Internship Abroad?

Are there any landscape architects or students of the profession who have gone abroad during their years of studies and worked as an intern in a foreign firm? How difficult is it to get to that point? What year students are they most likely to accept? Is it essential to be fluent in their language? What credentials would put you over the top of an easier to hire local student?

My school does a lot of out of country internships. Speaking the language where you are going to work is really important. Usually you go for an internship between Junior and Senior year so that after you work all summer you finish the last year of school and usually return to work for the company you interned with. What will set you apart is motivation. Make contacts and phone calls. Good luck!

Should I go to the architecture school at Penn State or VA Tech and what are Design Intelligence's 09 rankings?

I have been accepted to both and any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I'm assuming you mean for an undergraduate degree...
If thats the case, Penn state was ranked #11 and VA Tech got #2 by DI 09 rankings.

I don't know much about the schools specifically, I am going to CalPoly (#3) but I do know that it should come down to whichever you enjoy the most. I encourage you to visit both campuses and imagine which you could be at for the next five years. Take a look at the studios (you'll spend a lot of time there as an arch student). Architecture is vigorous, so go wherever you will be happiest. They are both great schools.
