BSc Real Estate with Professional Placement Year
About this course
Real estate is the study and practice of property in all its forms, encompassing commercial, residential, industrial, and leisure property in both the UK and overseas. Real estate professionals advise on the purchase, sale, valuation, management, and development of property assets, and they operate at the intersection of investment, law, economics, planning, and the built environment. The sector is significant in scale and scope, and it consistently offers strong graduate employment prospects. At the Royal Agricultural University, this four-year full-time programme includes a professional placement year, giving you the opportunity to gain substantive experience in the property industry before you complete your studies. You will examine the complexities of real estate markets across different sectors, developing an understanding of property valuation, investment analysis, development appraisal, property management, planning law, and the economics of urban and rural land use. The Royal Agricultural University has a distinctive character as a specialist land-based institution, which gives the programme particular depth in rural and agricultural property alongside its coverage of urban and commercial real estate. The typical entry tariff is 104 UCAS points. Graduates from real estate programmes go on to careers as chartered surveyors, property valuers, property managers, investment analysts, development surveyors, and asset managers in property companies, investment funds, consultancies, and the public sector. Most pursue professional membership of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. Further study options include postgraduate programmes in real estate, property investment, and planning.
