The Steven L. Newman Real Estate Institute was created to provide a foundation for education and research concerned with real estate and metropolitan development. It will provide opportunities for students to prepare for careers in the industry, not-for-profit organizations, and government. Through workshops, forums, and executive education, the Newman Institute will serve as a resource for professionals in the field.

Real estate courses are offered under the joint auspices of the Steven L. Newman Real Estate Institute and the Baruch College Continuing Studies Program. The courses offered under the licensing and certified program of the Newman Institute provide students with the professional educational requirements for various New York State licensing programs.

Certificate Program in Real Estate

In the Spring of 1999 the Certificate Program in Real Estate will begin, with practical skills-focused training in key facets of real estate practice in the Division of Continuing Studies. The Certificate Program will be given both in a sequence of weekday evening sessions and in a sequence of Saturday daytime sessions throughout the academic year. Because of the emphasis on mathematics and research skills, prior academic experience at the Associate Degree level or above is preferred, but other academic and work experience may be considered.
