Advanced Property Studies
Exploring real, personal, intangible, intellectual, and cultural property in a value-based market context.When you study law in The Center on PCSE you explore issues related to modern Real Estate Transactions and Finance; Community Development and Housing; Global Property Law Systems; and Access to Ownership for Inclusion of the Elderly, the Poor, and Persons with Disabilities. The PCSE curriculum provides you with the skills and knowledge that are essential to understanding the critical role of law in defining property, constituting markets, and fostering institutions of citizenship and governance. Property issues are among the most hotly contested issues in the global marketplace and PCSE offers you a front row seat.
Our curriculum is based on a belief that the modern lawyer must understand property and its regulation as part of the broader economic organization of society. This includes a need to understand relevant political, business, and financial factors. Students may earn a Certificate in Advanced Property Studies by successfully completing the core PCSE requirements.
The Certificate is awarded by the College of Law at graduation, upon successful completion of all requirements.
