About the Program

There are numerous career opportunities in residential, commercial and industrial real estate for trained men and women. You may become a broker, appraiser, property manager or mortgage lender. Real estate includes the planning and developing of office buildings, industrial complexes, farms, planned recreational developments, public land acquisitions, shopping centers and the complex field of mortgage lending and finance.

This program explores the basics of the real estate market, property rights, ownership, construction, financing and brokerage as they relate to the American consumer.

Program outcomes state what a graduate needs to be able to do with the essential knowledge, attitudes, skills, and behaviors acquired in a specific MATC program. The program outcomes communicate expectations to students, as well as other academic institutions and potential employers. The identification and assessment of program outcomes support MATC's efforts in documenting student learning and provide a context for the faculty's academic planning.
