Programme overview

The Master of Property Practice is suited to recent non-property graduates as well as mid-career industry professionals who have not completed a property qualification.

You will be equipped to enter or progress career roles in property management, property development, property valuation, consultancy and commercial property agency through our multidisciplinary practitioner-focused programme.

You will gain advanced knowledge and understanding of valuation, marketing, management, development and construction, law, finance and economics. You will be able to develop personal and professional skills and build networks as you collaborate with others in formulating ethically sound and environmentally responsible solutions to property issues.

Delivered fully online, this flexible programme can be studied part-time to enable working professionals to balance study with their other time commitments.

Limited spaces are available to international students for the MPropPrac.

A 120-point PGDipPropPrac and 60-point PGCertPropPrac (with a choice of specialisations in Valuation or Property Management) are available for students seeking shorter qualifications, or as exit options. These programmes are available to domestic students only.
