The real estate industry is all about renting and selling buildings? Far from it! As a real estate expert, you develop real estate projects, control real estate portfolios and take care of real estate marketing. You will prepare for this exciting professional field with a degree programme with vocational and academic elements in Real Estate and Property Management. You will learn the fundamentals of real estate economics and deal with topics such as portfolio management, investment & financing and real estate marketing. You will apply what you have learned directly at your practice partner. After your degree course, you will have the best career prospects – after all, the real estate industry is one of the largest sectors in Germany.

In the degree programme with vocational and academic elements at the IU, you will study in one of the following two study models. In the degree programme with vocational and academic elements, lectures take place on two days per week on campus – occasionally also online via live video conference. Students then reinforce what they have learned using the learning materials. The "myStudium" degree programme with vocational and academic elements combines flexible self-study with digital learning formats. You will acquire the theory independently via myCampus – supported by innovative learning materials and Syntea, your personal AI learning assistant. Optionally, you can participate in weekly virtual accompanying courses as well as use other interactive live formats to deepen your knowledge.
