This accelerated dual master’s degree option is intended for students who wish to pursue a distinct graduate degree in both the STEM-designated Construction Management program and the Real Estate Development program by capitalizing upon coursework shared by both programs and upon the flexibility of elective courses. Students may complete both programs in 61 credits, instead of the 73 credits required if the programs were pursued separately. Both degrees can be accomplished in two-years of full-time study, comprising a total reduction of twelve credits or one semester of graduate coursework and tuition.

For more information, contact Howard Ways for the MS in Real Estate development program, or Gulbin Ozcan-Deniz for the MS in Construction Management Program.
