A broad understanding of housing and development planning, housing
economics and markets, land and building analysis, development, and
marketing processes, particularly in the United States, is gained
through a sequence of courses in development planning and practice;
real estate research, finance, and investment; and housing impact
analysis. This concentration meets the needs of students with varying
interests, including planning for development, real estate market
research and analysis, real estate finance and investment analysis, and
relating land-use planning and controls to the private development
process.
Students must take at least two of the four required
courses, and at least four courses total in the concentration. Two
graduate planning studios covering the following topics are strongly
recommended: historic preservation, housing, urban design, neighborhood
revitalization, or community development.
