The study of real estate covers all aspects relating to land and buildings, including the development of land, the management of buildings (including shopping centres), the valuation of land and buildings and decision making regarding the financing of, and investment in land and buildings. Real estate/Property practitioners are professional people who work in all spheres of the property industry—also as professional property valuers.
The BSc (Real Estate) and BScHons (Real Estate) programmes are accredited nationally by the SACPVP and, apart from qualifying students to work in all spheres of the property industry, enable them to become professional property valuers.
Internationally, the degrees are accredited by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). The worldwide footprint of the RICS provides our real estate degrees with international recognition.
For more information, please consult the Faculty webpage.
Apart from a future in areas such as property investment, property finance and facilities and property management, further studies to obtain an honours degree in real estate can lead to registration as professional property valuers. Career opportunities encompass the entire spectrum of the property sector, whether as entrepreneurs in the private sector or as employees in the private, government or semi-government sectors.
