The Cornell Real Estate Review was founded in 2002 as a forum for faculty, professionals, and real estate students to focus attention on current issues in the real estate industry. The publication covers many topics from the various real estate disciplines including design, business economics, engineering, finance, law, planning, development, marketing, and property management.

Established in 2022 through a landmark gift from Paul Rubacha ‘72, MBA ‘73, the department represents a dedication to providing life-changing educational opportunities that empower students to innovate, lead, and transform the real estate industry.
