MSc Real Estate

In contrast to my undergraduate degree in Geography the MA was very vocational and I have acquired many skills directly applicable to a career in property. Most of the assignments considered real life scenarios in the city on which we had to make informed decisions. To be able to go and visit the sites gave a much greater sense of involvement than any fictional location would. The great range of modules linked directly to career pathways in commercial surveying jobs, such as Valuation, Investment, Property Law and Property Development, gave a great sense of what a career in the industry will involve. The standard of teaching at The University of Sheffield is very high and I credit much of this success to the guidance I received from my tutors and lecturers throughout the course of the year. Everybody on the course got on well and I was able to develop some close friendships with my course mates. We regularly helped each other out with assignments and enjoyed a fair few course socials together in the process! I am really glad I made the decision to take the course at such a well-respected university.
