The MSRE curriculum, requires students to complete courses within three groups (Business skills, Technical/Software skills, Real Estate Core), electives and 1 Capstone course among 4 specified or a comparable course the academic advisor and Director of Graduate Programs agree upon.
The 10 credits of elective courses required for the completion of either MSRE standing can be taken across campus among graduate level courses or courses at the 400 level at different time slots.
All required and elective courses for each of the standings can be downloaded at: Regular or Advance standing.
The MSRE curriculum covers 4 main areas: Business Skills, Technical & Software Skills, Real Estate Core classes, and a final capstone course.

The timeline to complete the degree varies, depending on students’ individual circumstances and preferences. The regular standing degree requires 70 credits minimum, while the advanced standing degree requires 41 credits minimum. International students are required to enroll in 10 credits each quarter.
