It is a one-year advanced degree aimed at understanding the breadth and depth of the development process. With a foundation in the economic, financial, strategic, and legal aspects of real estate development throughout the world, this comprehensive course goes beyond traditional subjects of the field. As urbanization, the digital revolution and concerns about global warming are increasing at an unprecedented pace and scale, students must be able to acquire up-to-date knowledge, use new and innovative tools, and have an integrated view of the factors involved in real estate to become leading professionals of the future.
For the past years, our innovative Master in Real Estate Development (MRED) and Global Master in Real Estate Development (GMRED) programs have strengthened participants’ expertise in real estate development and given them the skill set to lead the way in this constantly evolving sector.
Why now is the best time to become a real estate leader
The coming climate transition will have a lasting impact on the real estate industry, creating new sources of value and revenue streams for both tenants and investors, as well as presenting an opportunity to transform communities. The shift to remote working and its social impact, plus the rise of online commerce and its impact on logistics, have already shaken up the industry as we know it. The circular economy, global flows of capital and the fast-changing social, economic and environmental (ESG) conditions in cities all require new skills and knowledge which go beyond the reach of the traditional real estate curriculum.
ESG factors are now more relevant than ever, with regulatory agencies increasingly requiring environmental factors to be taken into account in real estate projects, as well as investors applying ESG criteria as performance metrics. Issues such as equitable development, affordable housing and managing the impact of climate change are all vital for a holistic, sustainable understanding of real estate. The climate transition not only poses challenges, but presents unique opportunities for the real estate industry—leading to the creation of new job roles focused on reevaluating assets and achieving net-zero transition.
Taught by leading academics and industry sector experts, our programs use cutting-edge technologies and offer you real-world experience through site visits and international trips, ensuring you’re prepared for the challenges and opportunities of today’s real estate world.

MORE INFO ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Dear Prospective Student,
Cities are centers for innovation, culture and learning. Real estate developments are one of the main catalysts for growth and social development in cities, as they bring people and businesses together and form communities. They also create some of the most significant environmental impacts related to climate change.
Today, the urbanization is occurring at unprecedented speed and scale. The majority of the world’s population lives in urban centers and the figures are growing. This translates into an increasing role for responsible real estate developments. Technology is also evolving and will provide new opportunities to effectively address emerging challenges. Investment environments are now global and becoming more complex; new governance models will impact the way we build, manage, and live in cities to create more competitive and democratic territories.
This 21st century is undergoing the most profound urban revolution to date, and in response, IE School of Architecture and Design has launched a Master in Real Estate Development (MRED).
