Accelerated 2-year MBA/MPS-Real Estate Dual Degree program
The 2-year MBA/MPS-Real Estate dual degree is designed for students that wish to forgo the additional summer internship in the traditional dual program and accelerate their study by taking an intensive five-semester curriculum. Students begin in May with an intensive summer of MBA core coursework followed by the first year fall and spring semesters largely devoted to real estate core course work. The second year coursework is divided between the two programs.
The accelerated 2-year program is ideal for students with a clear real estate career path.

Degree Requirements and Curriculum
Dual degree students must learn to effectively manage their time and become effective academic team members in the accelerated program structure.
The accelerated two-year program requires a minimum of 39 credit hours in the real estate program and 45 credits hours within the Johnson Graduate School of Management. Although rigorous, with proper planning and dedication both degree requirements can be completed within five semesters. The initial summer MBA core coursework includes a strong quantitative emphasis, and as such students are expected to arrive prepared to rigorous study. Particular emphasis is placed on assessing the quantitative abilities necessary to keep up with the compressed core course teaching in the first summer in the admissions process.
Traditional dual degree students will register with each program for three semesters, and pay the tuition and fees of the school in which they are registered that term. Upon completion of both program’s requirements, the student will earn both degrees. Neither diploma is granted prior to the completion of the other school's degree requirements.
