Minor in Real Estate
The undergraduate minor in Real Estate is designed to prepare students for careers in the commercial real estate industry. The minor focuses on careers that are based on treating real estate as a financial asset; be it a real estate investor, in the REITs, in real estate private equity, in real estate finance, in real estate consulting, in structured finance, and in commercial real estate brokerage.

Minors
Students in the Nolan School of Hotel Administration may pursue minors offered by units in any college or division at Cornell. A unit that offers a minor may place restrictions on who can pursue that minor (usually because of limited resources), and a major may place restrictions on the minors that its students can take (usually because the major and minor areas are too similar).
Completion of a minor will be audited by the unit that offers it. The minor will be recorded on students’ official transcripts by their home colleges after receiving verification by the unit offering the minor, usually during the summer after graduation. Students should inquire with the offering units for application procedures and requirements.
