Introduction

Real estate trends are ever-changing. Growing populations demand new locations, new experiences, and new work styles. Tackling these complex demands requires knowledge of all facets of real estate development. If you want to be an industry leader, you need to understand the physical (design, development, and construction), financial, and legal tenets of the industry.

Under the guiding philosophy of the Advisory Board, Nova Southeastern University’s Master of Science in Real Estate Development (M.S.R.E.D.) will prepare you to meet the challenges of the real estate market so you can grow your career or quickly start a new one.

As an NSU student, you’ll receive hands-on experience in what it's like within the real estate development industry through personalized, real-world knowledge, such as:

A dedicated mentor to help you get the most from your investment
On-site tours of actual development projects
A full-immersion curriculum taught by industry professionals with in-depth knowledge gained from years of actual real estate experience
Exposure to current industry-standard software such as ARGUS and ArcGIS
Classes, in-field case studies, and personal interaction with noted professionals

Upon graduating, you’ll have a portfolio to demonstrate your first-hand knowledge of the real estate industry. Through NSU's M.S.R.E.D. program, you will be prepared for mid- and senior-level responsibilities in commercial and residential development, including urban and suburban real estate development, economic and environmentally sustainable real estate development, management, investment, sales and marketing, finance, investment, banking, and asset management.

Additionally, you’ll build an extensive network of professional contacts in the industry, among other students and alumni, and professional networks. These contacts have proven to be of real value to NSU students and graduates in achieving their career goals.

Be prepared to succeed with an M.S.R.E.D. degree from NSU.
