Real Estate has turned out to be an awarding career for many; still many opt for this career without acquiring any kind of degree or education, which was justified some years ago as there were not many real estate programs being offered at universities. However, now you can easily find universities offering such programs in many developed countries. Masters or Real Estate Development (also known as Master of Science in Real Estate Development) is one such degree, being offered in various universities all around the United States. If you're interested to go for real estate as a career, Masters in Real Estate Development (MRED) is the kind of education you must consider before trying your luck in this field. Some of the universities offering this program are University of Utah, Arizona State University, Columbia University, University of Miami, University of Southern California, etc.

The syllabus for this particular program focuses on market analysis, finance, project management and design for real estate developments. Idea behind this extensive program is to prepare professionals with practical skills to carry out all ...
... sorts of tasks included in real estate development process, from planning to oversee the construction work. Some of the subjects included in this program are Market Analysis, Finance Fundamentals, Real Estate Project Management, Construction Management and the likes. Also the industry specific courses like Real Estate Law, City Planning and Architecture are included.

It's interesting, how for a long time real estate was neglected as a specialized subject in schools and universities. Real Estate plays a very significant role in the economies and financial markets in all parts of the world. It deserves as many qualified professionals as any other sector. However, for years people had no other option but to acquire the regular MBA or a similar degree and get into the field having no clue as to how the real estate market works. Thankfully, that's not the case anymore. Universities and institutes are gradually starting to realize the importance of qualified professionals. Now we've got the institutes like Cambridge University, Hong Kong University, London School of Economics, Meikai University and European Business School offering programs like Master of Real Estate, Masters in Real Estate Finance, Master of Arts in Real Estate and Master Program in Real Estate economics.

Masters in Real Estate Development is the ideal course for anybody who is looking to pursue a career in a market where lots of new constructions are in pipeline or under progress (hint: Dubai). Because of the shortage of qualified professionals, one can expect to get a job without delay after getting hold of this degree.
