The Master of Science programme in Real Estate
Development and Financial Services is offered by the Department of Real
Estate and Construction Management. The programme prepares graduates
for different occupations related to the real estate, financial
services, government, and construction management sectors, both
nationally and internationally.
Our
hands-on approach to teaching and learning ensures that our class
projects consist of activities that will provide students with job
related skills. Our close links with industry, local professional
bodies and a strong alumni network allow us to stay abreast of current
developments in the business and integrate this into our programmes.
Furthermore, national and international guest speakers from both
universities and industry will provide additional perspectives on some
of the issues that are discussed during the courses.
