SPONSORSHIPS
The Connecticut Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects(CTASLA) represents, educates, and advocates for the profession of landscape architecture in the state. We recognize and value the contributions of students and emerging professionals as vital to the future of landscape architecture.
Unfortunately, the cost of ASLA membership dues is frequently a barrier to meaningful participation by students and emerging professionals. Our chapter is committed to removing that obstacle by providing a sponsorship program in exchange for volunteer service hours.
This opportunity is open to all sophomores, juniors, and seniors with a declared major in Landscape Architecture at the University of Connecticut, as well as to all emerging professionals working in Connecticut within a two-year time frame following graduation.
To apply, please provide a 250-word essay describing how you hope being involved with CTASLA will help you launch a fulfilling career in landscape architecture and submit it to emergingprofessionals@ctasla.org
