Advisory Board
Advisory Board for both the Concentration and the Center for Real Estate Development consists of David Hartzell, Tom Harvey, Mike Miles (Guggenheim Real Estate), Leonard Wood (Wood Partners), and Roger Perry (East-West Partners). In addition, two other Advisory Boards will be created: one focused on curriculum issues to ensure that students are learning state of the art analytical techniques, and the other on the overall strategy of the program and the Real Estate Center.
Active alumni participation provides the bridge between current and former students. Their involvement and interaction is an essential part of the MBA experience for real estate students, and they provide guidance regarding job search, career interests, and other aspects of their experience through a variety of event.
In addition, the Real Estate Club extends the classroom experience by engaging students, faculty, alumni and real estate professionals in a broad variety of activities, including a speaker series sponsored by the RealEstateCenter, and semiannual trips to give students first-hand exposure to such markets as Washington, Atlanta, New York, Phoenix, Charlotte, and others. In addition, the Real Estate Club sponsors career panels that bring distinguished alumni to campus to discuss their careers throughout the year.
