Ringkasan program

This program prepares students for careers in today’s challenging world of business by delivering a comprehensive program of academics, technology, and leadership. A diverse business core and a variety of electives constitute an accredited curriculum that is based on the liberal arts and sciences foundation for which the College of Charleston is so well known. A real estate concentration allows students to focus their studies on the commercial real estate industry while majoring in business administration. It prepares students for an exciting career in commercial real estate: investment analysis, finance, development, and asset management. The goal is to prepare graduates for long-term career success. The real estate curriculum is built around the framework of the "commercial real estate system" which consists of three integrated markets and functions. Real estate use markets involve transactions between property owners (landlords) and space users (tenants). Landlords compete against each other for tenants who generate the income to the property. These markets are segmented by property type (office, industrial, retail, multi-family, hospitality, etc.) and geographic area (cities, suburban areas, etc.). The real estate asset market involves transactions between investors seeking ownership of properties located in real estate use markets. The investors make decisions to purchase property based on the risk/return profiles of properties and alternative capital market investment opportunities available to them. The Real estate development industry produces properties used in the real estate use markets and owned by participants in the real estate asset market. Developers add new supply to use markets when the values of properties (which are determined in the asset market) exceed the cost of development. Understanding the three components of the commercial real estate system and how the participants in each component make their business decisions is crucial to a successful career in the commercial real estate industry. Graduates have a variety of career paths to choose in the industry including specialty areas such as investment analysis, financing, market analysis and research, consulting/advising, brokerage and leasing, development and redevelopment, valuation, asset/portfolio analysis and management, legal affairs, regulation and management in government agencies.
