The Real Estate Center's Sponsors and its Mentor Network provide a broad-based structure for both the career enhancement of alumni and friends and the continuing cultivation of the real estate profession. The network begins with social events, seminars and symposia. Sponsors participate in executive-in-residence programs, serve as guest lecturers in courses and act as advisors on research and other projects of the center.
All sponsorships are renewable annually and may consist of corporations, trusts, foundations, associations or individuals.
