We are leaders in Real Estate Masters post-graduate programmes because:
  • Track record: more than twenty years ago, we were the first UK university to provide RICS accredited Masters degrees, and over ten years ago the first to run real estate courses in a globally ranked Business School. So our degrees are widely recognised and highly valued by major employers, and you will find Cass Real Estate graduates at all levels in leading real estate firms around the world.
  • Capability: you will be taught by our well-known, highly qualified real estate staff, all of them with at least 10 yearsÕ experience in either university teaching and research or in senior roles in the industry Ð a lot of them with both. Plus, we can draw on LondonÕs unmatched pool of industry professionals to act as visiting lecturers and guest speakers.
  • Focus: In real estate Cass runs only Masters degrees Ð so you have the exclusive attention of our staff - and has specialised in courses which focus on the professional, financial and practical skills in high demand across the rapidly globalising real estate industry.
  • Location: CassÕs state of the art teaching facilities sit at the heart of LondonÕs global real estate hub, neighbouring both the CityÕs historic financial core and a dynamic new tech belt centred on the Silicon Roundabout.

TheÊReal Estate programme from City, University of London starts with two induction weeks, focused on:

  • An introduction to the real estate industry and the careers it offers, including a dedicated real estate careers day with briefings form the RICS and a range of employers and a Careers Fair with over 20 leading firms.
  • Foundation courses in the principles of finance, financial mathematics and quantitative methods to introduce the key concepts and methods you will use through the year.

Career

The largest proportion of our students go on to the graduate entry schemes of major firms of chartered surveyors in the UK, going through the RICS Assessment of Professional Competence to become qualified professionals.

The others go into a very wide range of employers and roles Ð with smaller niche agencies, fund managers, developers, investment banks, lending banks, public agencies, rating agencies, research companies, not to mention setting up their own businesses. Many will go on to professional qualifications outside real estate, such as Chartered Financial Analyst Institute.
