The Collegiate Challenge

Thursday,  April 8, 2010    

The principal benefit is the opportunity and value of working on a real-world case study of a significant real estate project located in their community. The analysis and recommendations made by the students will require their finest thinking and creativity.  The options they consider wil take into account the national, regional and local economies and other factors such as the supply and demand forces affecting the local real estate markets.

The teams have an opportunity to put themselves into the shoes of the owner/developer and to consider many options for maximizing return and creating a quality and viable project.  This "battle of the brighest" is designed to extract the best efforts from the students in a "real-world" competitive environment not unlike the real estate world they wish to enter.
