About:

The HREM program is one of only two such programs in Canada and the only one of its kind in the Province of Ontario. The degree focuses on developing the analytical, conceptual, and management skills required for professional careers. The HREM major includes the standard business courses found in any B. Comm. Program. These are combined with the specific study of housing and real property management in the context of the economic, social, legal, and policy issues in which the industry operates. Students learn about appraisal, housing and real estate finance, quantitative and statistical analysis, public policy, research methods, and real estate law.

Core Focus:

Bachelor of Commerce-- Housing & Real Estate Management

Program Highlights:

A co-op option has recently been added to the HREM major. Students work in the industry for two eight-month work terms, one after the fourth academic semester and one after the sixth. Co-op education allows students to gain valuable work experience in the 'real world' and helps in defining their career goals.
