If you want to be a prime asset in any job market, the Franklin L. Burns School of Real Estate and Construction Management at the Daniels College of Business is the premier place to be. We take a holistic approach to the business of the built environment—providing a 360-degree view of a project life cycle. No other real estate program in the nation has our approach—or our ties to business.

“My experience at Daniels prepared me to lead with character and conviction. The proformas and other analysis tools used in my courses are still useful for me in my day-to-day operations. More important than knowing how to analyze potential projects, I believe that conducting yourself in an ethical manner is crucial to having a long-term, successful career in the commercial real estate industry.”

— Jake Hallauer, Master of Science in Real Estate and Construction Management, 2012

Developing Leaders for the Built Environment

As the only Real Estate and the Built Environment (REBE) program from a renowned and accredited business

college, our degrees are designed to make sharp minds even sharper and turn experienced professionals

into visionary leaders. In the fast-moving, high risk/high reward world of real estate, property development,

and integrated project delivery, it’s important to always keep learning and stay ahead of the curve. With

a degree from Daniels and the Burns School, rest assured you will leave with a better grasp of your own

potential and the knowledge you need to stand out and stand up for what’s right in your career.

“I chose to attend the Burns School because the program was exactly what I was looking for—a curriculum geared toward the entrepreneurial real estate investor and developer. In this program, I learned to thoroughly and professionally analyze markets and investment opportunities. I also gained the confidence to play in the commercial and institutional arenas. Through my experience in the DU real estate program, I developed the skills, abilities and network needed to take my career to the next level and be involved in large commercial real estate transactions.”
