Overview
The Real Estate Development Program from University of Maryland promotes a multi-disciplinary approach to real estate education. It delivers a comprehensive curriculum with a foundation in the business, finance and entrepreneurial aspects of real estate, paying special attention to the “quadruple bottom line:” economic viability, environmental respect, social responsibility and beautiful design. The program offers a unique mix of elements and a strong finance foundation that prepares students to successfully address industry challenges and become accomplished practitioners.
It includes the following components:
- Professors who are active industry professionals, committed to providing the working knowledge of how real estate is being developed and managed under current conditions.
- A location rich with real estate challenges—land development on the Eastern Shore, infill development in Washington, DC, redevelopment of suburban transit corridors, river and harbor front makeovers in Baltimore and Washington—allowing students to explore classroom concepts with enriching site visits.
- A flexible and personal study program with start dates, course sequences and core requirements tailored specifically to each student’s needs.
- A diverse student body, whose broad mix of academic backgrounds, practical experience, age, gender, ethnicity and culture provide an exceptional setting for learning, collaboration and professional connections.
