MBA - Real Estate

Program overview

Kellogg's real estate curriculum is meticulously crafted to underscore the significance of real estate as a key asset class in the global economy. Stemming from the roots of the recent financial crisis in the real estate market, the evolving landscape emphasizes the imperative for future real estate professionals to possess a comprehensive understanding of both the theory and practical aspects of the industry. The curriculum unfolds in two stages: an initial foundational phase focuses on equipping students with essential tools for analyzing real estate transactions, while the subsequent stage delves deeper for those seeking specialization. This advanced stage encompasses an in-depth exploration of market institutions, as well as the intricate interplay of real estate markets with urban planning, development, entrepreneurship, public policy, and law.
