The study of real estate and real estate development at the graduate school level has taken many forms, giving rise to various educational models in the United States. The decision for individuals pursing higher education in this field often comes down to choosing between a traditional degree with a specialization in real estate or an interdisciplinary degree focused wholly on real estate studies.9 B- c" W5 |* J- R5 w" ~' B5 a
Historically, real estate studies were limited to traditional degrees, more commonly a major or minor in business, such as anMBA, or training in architecture and urban planning schools. Business school programs usually emphasize the business side of real estate; development—financing, marketing or company management. Architecture and urban planning degrees typically lack adequate training in finance. As education needs have changed, business schools such as theUniversity of Wisconsin, University of Pennsylvania, and University of California, Berkeley continue to cater to students interested in the business side of real estate. Wharton's real estate program, for example, takes advantage of being housed in one of the top business schools in the United States and having some of the top real estate professionals in the world as advisers.[1]
In the mid-1980s real estate academic programs flourished as the industry matured to one with great complexity and an increasingly institutional ownership structure. The increased complexity of the industry created a demand for practitioners who possessed a comprehensive real estate education. One and two-year graduate level real estate degree programs originated with the founding of the MIT Center for Real Estate in 1983. Columbia University (1985), Texas A&M University(1985) and University of Southern California (1986) soon offered masters level educations.: I- V$ \! d) K% \% K
During the mid-1990s strong academic interest in real estate development "was never greater, whether it's for repositioning products, redeveloping inner cities, or developing more affordable housing. Students seemed to be acting on the notion that it's a temporary downturn and graduate school is a good place for the moment."[2] During this period, one out of two real estate programs were adding new courses as a result of increased enrollment.
In the 2000s, prior to and even during the Great Recession, the industry again acknowledged increasing need for graduates with superior qualifications — providing the research-based expertise necessary to solve complex problems in contemporary real estate development. Universities in the early 2000s include Clemson University (2004), Arizona State University (2006), University of Maryland (2006), and Auburn University (2009) established real estate development programs. Other programs, such as Georgetown University with a focus on real estate rather than real estate development began in 2008.; l6 d. U1 I. N# p [! i
Real estate programs continue in the future to provide an excellent training ground for professionals. Graduate education is commonly a prerequisite to advancing in many aspects of real estate. The late 2000s saw the expansion of real estate programs to second and third tier universities, as well as additional coursework added by MBA programs. Real estate programs have reflected a commitment to creating a conceptual framework for dealing with real estate development issues in a professional forum.
All students considering a career in real estate and development are advised to talk with developers, real estate lawyers,architects, asset managers, corporate real estate directors and city planners to gain a full picture of the career options open to them and all of the educational requirements for those careers.[3] Typically, real estate professionals in the fields of appraisal, residential or commercial sales, property management or leasing do not require graduate education. Real estate is an increasingly complex, highly competitive, fast-paced industry, and its practitioners are often finding that they need to further their knowledge and skills to advance. A graduate degree can open doors to greater job and career opportunities and command a higher salary in the marketplace.
Graduate-level education rankings in the US
Rankings for graduate level education are not specifically formal as other professional disciplines. MBA programs with concentrations in real estate may be ranked according to organizations such as U.S. News & World Report or Business Week, but are not relative to the depth of the real estate industry studied in a MBA concentration compared with a specialized master's degree in real estate development. Real estate education has increased in recent years to fill the demand for well-educated practitioners in the industry. However, there has been a great deal of debate on what elements should be an essential part of a graduate program in order to help students succeed in the industry. Rankings have been conducted by editorial board representation of faculty members at university real estate departments,[4] however, these results prove to be ineffective in judging the program as a whole. Many graduate programs utilize adjunct professors or guest speakers from the industry, which do not sit on editorial boards of scholarly real estate journals.3 X" |: [7 j4 ]2 t2 \
Currently there are no rankings of masters degree programs in real estate. The best method to evaluate the various degree programs is through due diligence by individual applicants, including a review of each program's curriculum and how it applies to the students academic and career goals. While there are no formal rankings for graduate real estate education, and programs are subject to greater locational impact factors than are MBA programs (due to regional and local policy influence), the top programs are generally regarded as Columbia University, University of Pennsylvania, MIT, and University of Southern California. Specific programs are known throughout the industry for specific niches. For example, Cornell University is highly regarded for its hospitality emphasis, while the University of Maryland holds a strong study in public/private finance and development.9 Z/ [+ K2 z; J3 {% f
A separate metric to evaluate the success of graduate real estate programs is the review of past winner's in the Urban Land Institute Gerald D. Hines Student Competition. Each year graduate-level students form their own multidisciplinary teams and have two weeks to devise a comprehensive design and development program for a real, large-scale site full of challenges and opportunities. Submissions will consist of boards that include drawings, site plans, tables, and market-feasible financial data. [5]! U# g* u2 k6 `2 }) Z5 \
Master of Real Estate Development
The Master of Real Estate Development (MRED) programs generally focus on the three main elements of real estate development: design, finance, and policy. Students are generally exposed to the full range of development functions - design, construction management, market analysis, finance, site planning, and project management and operations, in addition to all real estate product types - residential, retail, office, hospitality, and industrial. Whether in the context of urban redevelopment, historic preservation, or suburban growth, MRED students learn from the developer's perspective the importance of relevant issues in law, economics, finance, market analysis, negotiation, architecture, urban history, planning, and construction project management.[6]
The programs are a full-immersion focusing on the entire real estate and development process-from dirt-to-deal, finance to façade-and include industry topics presented by leading local and national developers. The typical MRED student is a highly motivated individual who seeks to radically alter or enhance their career paths and join the real estate development industry. Students who graduate from the programs are committed to a career in real estate development, rather than asset management, institutional investment or property management.( [8 }9 h7 Z( B& e) c* A2 z l1 d0 o0 M
Master of Science in Real Estate
Graduate programs that award a degree of a Master of Real Estate or Master of Science in Real Estate is typically the expansion of real estate courses in a MBA program or Business school into a separate degree. Master of Science in Real Estate programs focus on topics of real estate finance, development and planning, management, investment, economics, and accounting. Some universities offer a variation on this degree, with special focus in development, finance, valuation or analysis. Each degree program may differ, but an interdisciplinary approach to coursework is commonly not available. Industry professionals generally regard the top programs at: Cornell University, New York University, University of Floridaand the University of Washington. Some of the Master of Science in Real Estate Programs are very small (i.e. American University) or were established within the past two years (i.e. Georgetown University, George Mason University).1 R1 V- `) u7 o4 m4 U( C8 T: B

Traditional degrees in the US- J+ i% j2 e" d
Traditional degrees are usually offered in real estate, business or city planning. Business degrees with real estate concentrations generally provide students with the opportunity to pursue a general management degree, but to specialize in real estate development or some segment of the real estate industry through a sequence or group of electives. For a long time, those wishing to study real estate had to content themselves with pursuing a [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_of_Business_Administration]Master of Business Administration degree, perhaps with the option of concentration in real estate, and usually with a focus in finance.' ]& x\" O+ {.

MBA with Real Estate Concentration
Related Graduate Program Offerings
Professionals in real estate often hold degrees in related fields such as [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_planning]city planning, construction management, accounting, property management, architecture or law. One of the most common programs continues to be a Master of City Planning, regional planning, or urban planning degree with a real estate emphasis. Planning programs tend to emphasize land use planning, transportation or infrastructure development, land use law and policy and other planning topics; students who take a concentration in real estate development will learn how it relates to planning. Those students in city planning degrees generally lack the understanding of basic finance methods, rather focusing on public policy, design and urban form.! i2 T2 R- e* C+ g1 ?* @* D
