Course summary
Some people love developing buildings, seeing a concept turn into reality. Some like to be on site, working to build something from nothing. Others like to manage a portfolio, handling problems and looking after investments. On our Real Estate course, you can explore every aspect of a building’s life, from planning through to demolition. You'll meet with professionals and work on live case studies. Our residential field trips let you explore the great estates of London or potentially even properties abroad. You’ll meet with professionals and work on a project during your visit. Our forward-looking modules like Property Technology look into everything from automated valuations to virtual reality viewings. Development. Lettings. Sales. Valuations. Investment. Construction. Utilities. Whichever area of property you’re interested in, we’ll help you develop the skills for a fulfilling career in residential or commercial real estate.
Modules
There are six subject areas to the course: valuation, finance and investment; property management; planning and development; design, construction and appraisal of buildings; economics; and law. In your final year you will write a dissertation on a property-related subject. A special feature is the Professional Practice Test which involves a week away from Oxford. You will study a chosen city and development projects within it, completing group and individual tasks, as well as oral examinations. The tasks test your ability to integrate your expertise in different subject areas and apply it to real-world problems. We also offer a mentoring scheme to support your move from the academic environment into the world of work. Each student on the scheme is matched with a dedicated mentor, who they work with through their second year and into their final year.
