The curriculum delivers an in-depth foundation across six core areas of real estate administration and enterprise management. Students explore the macroeconomic, environmental, and infrastructure frameworks of the property sector before mastering corporate governance, financial accounting, budget planning, and investment calculations. Further modules concentrate on practical property management, residential property law, facility management, building project coordination, urban development concepts, property valuation, and strategic brokerage activities.
