I am going to be graduating with a Bachelors degree (geography) at the end of the year and I am interested in pursuing a M.L.A. Although I have no design experience, I feel that I have the drive, and creativity to succeed in the field. My problem is that I can not draw. I've never had to draw in my undergraduate classes. Will this hinder me? Also many schools ask for a portfolio with your application, and since my degree is in geography, I have nothing that could go in a portfolio of work. Could anyone clear these things up for me?

PS: I can make a mean model, just dont ask me to draw anything.

Most architectural drawing is done with computers these days - CAD (computer aided drafting) I'm not in this field but my daughter and son-in-law have taken a lot of CAD and my engineer spouse also used CAD a bunch.

Eddie George, ASLA, talks about how he became a landscape architect and his career after the NFL.

its in physics

you can lament upon energy requirements at several landscapes comparing it from planes to mountains and sea coast.
Then you can describe some methods of reducing the energy usage in these regions. Just be innovative and think on and you will get the answer yourself.
You can try making a windmill which is prevelent near sea-coasts, or solar device prevelent in desert regions and hydro electric generators used in sea for electricity generation(where frequent high n' low tides occur). etc.

GOOD LUCK!
