MSc Real Estate Management

The MSc Real Estate Management program takes a complete approach that combines economics, social impact, and environmental factors to develop effective real estate strategies.

Students learn to identify, assess, design, and deliver innovative solutions by understanding the connections between real estate and other built environment fields. It particularly examines the combination of business and legal processes related to property ownership and management.

The course brings together technological, financial, legal, and management aspects as they pertain to property matters and prepares students for the complex nature of the real estate sector. Students have the option of an 18-month programme which includes a professional placement.
