Green Architecture Schools

Can you recommend any specific architecture programs for Green Architecture? Or are most schools incorporating it into their curriculum?


In one sense, most schools are developing courses in sustainability or determining ways that their degree programs can incorporate this hot topic, but the profession is quickly recognizing its importance. As a result, all programs must address it. However, if you search programs on -- http://www.archschools.org/ -- through the advanced method that allows you to select Environment/Sustainability, the result reveals 72 programs. You will need to establish a few other criteria to further narrow your search.

Schools to Research:
Arizona State University - School of Sustainability
Ball State University - College of Architecture and Planning

Resources:
Solar Decathalon
U.S. Green Building Council
Green Building Links
AIA Committee on the Environment

Hello!
I am very interested in techniques used in Green Architecture using plants as the essential material.(green roofs...)
I studied biology and I would love to become an horticulturist working with architects on Green projects. I was wondering if any of you know a good horticulture school in or around NY?
