The Masters of Real Estate Development is a program offered a limited number of top universities in the United States that prepares graduates for key positions in real estate development. The MRED program, as it is commonly called, is a carefully integrated program which brings together the three main elements of real estate development: design, finance, and policy. Students are exposed not only to the full range of development functions - market analysis, finance, site planning, and project management and operations, but also to all product types - residential, retail, office, hospitality, and industrial. Whether in the context of urban redevelopment, historic preservation, or suburban growth, MRED students learn from the developer's perspective the importance of relevant issues in law, economics, finance, market analysis, negotiation, architecture, urban history, planning, and project management.
