“How can we combine civil engineering and landscape architecture?”

Civil engineering involves the application of scientific and mathematical principles to shape the public environment. Landscape architecture focuses on designing outdoor areas and plant life to achieve human-centered outcomes. Combining both, you get Landscape Engineering, which uses technical principles to shape landscapes for human benefit. This can range from creating bioswales to channel stormwater runoff to drawing up drainage basins.
