The Landscape Architecture Foundation’s Olmsted Scholars Program (named for Frederick Law Olmsted, the father of American landscape architecture) recognizes and supports students with exceptional leadership potential who are using ideas, influence, communication, service, and leadership to advance sustainable design and foster human and societal benefits.  The premier national award program recognizes outstanding students in accredited landscape architecture programs in the U.S. and Canada.  Students are both honored for past achievements and recognized for their future potential to influence the landscape architecture profession.
