The degree is an initiative of the School of Architecture and Built Environment at the University of Newcastle, and has been developed in response to an identified demand for a postgraduate qualification in property.

If you have a relevant undergraduate degree from an approved institution, and a minimum of two years relevant work experience in a property or property related field then this might be the masters degree for you.

You will be eligible for the Graduate Certificate of the program if you have a diploma or certificate, and more than 5 years property industry work experience.
