About the course

Prepare yourself for a career in real estate. On this course you will enhance your understanding of the role of real estate in the wider economy, with a particular focus on the challenges and opportunities of new developments.

　　This course focuses on providing you with the knowledge and skills necessary to engage in highly strategic policy issues, as well as the more operational aspects of land and real estate use and development. You’ll develop the skills needed to analyse complex problems, recommend appropriate courses of action, take decisions and communicate effectively with professional audiences.

　　By combining both property valuation and development knowledge with skills in planning and regeneration, you will gain a full perspective on the physical, social and environmental aspects of the built environment. You will therefore be well placed to address real world challenges such as advising on and promoting the effective use or reuse of land and buildings and delivering developments.

　　This course is designed for students from a wide range of academic and professional backgrounds who wish to specialise in the planning and development process. Graduates from this masters course typically go on to careers in development, valuation and asset management both in the private and public sector.
