International Real Estate Professionals in Residence (I-REP)

The International Real Estate Professionals Program connects students with real estate and finance professionals working across global markets. Designed with international students in mind—but open to all students with an interest in global real estate—this program offers insight into how real estate careers, markets, and practices differ across regions and countries.

Through virtual conversations, mentorship sessions, and career-focused discussions, students gain exposure to international career pathways, cross-border investment practices, and global industry trends. Participants have the opportunity to learn directly from professionals about navigating careers abroad, leveraging international experience, and building global professional networks.
