Undergraduate Concentration

The Real Estate concentration consists of one required course (1 CU) and 3 CUs of electives. The required course focuses on finance, whereas the electives explore a variety of issues related to real estate.  These include development, the economics of real estate markets, urban fiscal policy, real estate law, entrepreneurship in the real estate sector, housing markets, the relationship between government policy and private development, real estate data analytics, and international real estate markets.

Students with a Real Estate concentration are required to take the following course (1 CU):

REAL/FNCE 2090 – Real Estate Investments: Analysis and Financing

  • FNCE 1000 is the prerequisite.

 

Students with a Real Estate concentration must take an additional 3 CUs from the following electives to match their interests and career objectives:

Notes:

Real estate classes taken pass/fail cannot count toward the concentration.

If a student pursues concentrations in both Finance and Real Estate and elects to use REAL/FNCE 2090 towards their Finance concentration, the student must then complete an additional Real Estate elective in its place to complete the real estate concentration requirements.

Seats are limited in the Spring semester section of REAL 3210.

Not all courses are offered every semester. Please consult with the Undergraduate Advisor regarding course availability.
