Master of Land and Property Development and Master of Real Estate Combined Degree Program

The Master of Land and Property Development (MLPD), located in the School of Architecture, is an entrepreneurship-oriented program of study which combines business and finance with physical planning, design, and construction. The MLPD program dissolves the boundaries between planning, construction and environmental issues and between finance, accounting and market issues. However, through rigorous training in due diligence, site analysis, entitlements, project management, and market and financial analysis, graduates also become uniquely prepared for the real-world.

The Master of Real Estate (MRE) program, located in the Mays Business School, is primarily designed to provide broad preparation for the practice of commercial real estate consulting, valuation, brokerage, development, lending and capital markets, investment, asset management and corporate real estate.

The combined degree pairs these two degrees, allowing the student to complete both more quickly than they would if taken separately. Students completing degrees in both will have the full set of skills needed to practice real estate development, from conception and financing, to site development and build out.
