would challenge every student of landscape architecture to spend
a life passionately studying, traveling, learning, and working.
Recognize the awesome task we face as a profession….and lead the

EDAW
Summer Student Program (SSP) |

Each summer, as part of its Summer Student Program SSP,
EDAW selects approximately fifteen students from around
the world to participate in a "real-world" project with
a "real" client. The year 2000 marked the 20th anniversary
of this program; to celebrate, the program embarked on
its own expedition--the SSP2000 Expedition-- with a focus
on participating in the nation's commemoration of the
Lewis & Clark Expedition during the years 2003 - 2006.
This year's client was the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(Service) and its location was the Ridgefield National
Wildlife Refuge (NWR) on the Lower Columbia Riverö¦.

steps toward bridging the gap between practice and theory,
and that they will return their studies enriched by exposure
to other students and by interaction with a highly focused
design practice.
