A survey of the staffs for landscape architecture in 20 national universities all over the country was carried out on the lot utilization ratio of each university, the development of landscape architecture department and its professionals in universities, the establishing status of the plans for landscape architecture of each university, and the satisfaction level of landscape architecture staffs. The results show that most universities pay a little attention to the whole campus landscape architecture according as they don't conduct the systematic works for landscape architecture and some which are done partially attach importance only to maintenance work such as simple controls of open space and trees.
