MBA Programs for Real Estate

Even post-housing bubble, the US real estate industry still pulls in almost $100 billion in revenue each year, according to some estimates. Additionally, real estate markets in India, China, and other countries are still emerging. To tap into these opportunities, some MBA programs offer specialized curriculum and others house real estate research centers. Post-MBA jobs in the sector can range from a corporate real estate broker to a property investment executive.
