The program allows candidates to take courses on either a part-time or full-time schedule, depending on their needs each semester.

The MS program in real estate delivers not only core business knowledge and management skills but also knowledge and technical training specific to the real estate industry. Graduates are positioned for many varied and lucrative positions with real estate development firms, appraisal and consulting firms, accounting firms, insurance companies, pension funds, banks and financial institutions, investment banks, real estate investment trusts, mortgage security underwriters, commingled real estate funds, regulatory agencies, and firms with large real estate holdings.

An MS and MBA program are offered through the Department of Real Estate. The MBA provides students with a broad set of management skills, as well as some advanced knowledge in real estate. It is a generalist program. The MS is for students who have decided on a career in real estate as a high-level manager, analyst, or real estate entrepreneur. This program provides training in the use of advanced analytical tools and cutting-edge knowledge as applied to real estate fields. It is a specialist program.
