Schulich has a strong and innovative tradition in real estate and infrastructure education. Founded in 1991, the MBA Program in Real Estate & Infrastructure is well established, highly regarded by industry and connected to a sizeable, engaged global alumni network. The school was well ahead of the curve in introducing infrastructure to the curriculum, seeing the need in an expanding industry and the natural connection with cities and real estate. The 12-month full-time Master in Real Estate & Infrastructure (MREI), introduced in 2017, builds upon the reputation and expertise of the MBA specialization. The MREI equips students with a distinctive combination of subject matter expertise, integrative and critical thinking skills and industry knowledge necessary for successful careers in both real estate and infrastructure. In addition to a three-term leadership development class, core courses focus on valuation techniques, legal and regulatory frameworks, investment and business structures, sustainability, planning and design issues, and the project life cycle. In a capstone course, students apply theory in a collaborative framework by tackling real-world industry challenges that encompass social, environmental and business considerations from both local and global perspectives. Graduates work in real estate and infrastructure development, investment and portfolio management, project finance and consulting. They are employed by developers, real estate investment trusts, pension funds and advisory firms, financial institutions, brokerage and consulting firms. Some are entrepreneurs launching their own firms. The MBA specialization and MREI programs are housed within the new Brookfield Centre in Real Estate and Infrastructure that capitalizes on a strong network of alumni and other industry participants and supports a wide variety of in-class experiential learning and co-curricular activities that include joint venture negotiation simulations, an infrastructure innovation competition, the New York City trip with site tours, the Developers’ Den international case competition, the annual Perspectives Lecture, and the Student Real Estate & Infrastructure Club (SREIC).
