ABOUT THE NYU SCHOOL OF PROFESSIONAL STUDIES SCHACK INSTITUTE OF REAL ESTATE The NYU School of Professional Studies (NYUSPS) Schack Institute of Real Estate was founded in 1967 at the initiative of prominent members of the New York City real estate community, who encouraged NYU to establish an academic center that would provide a world-class education for industry professionals. Fifty years later, the Schack Institute is at the forefront of real estate education and is recognized globally as one of the world s leading centers of real estate research and pedagogy. Across the Institute s graduate degree programs notably the MS in Real Estate, the MS in Construction Management, and the MS in Real Estate Development as well as a rapidly expanding undergraduate degree program, enrollment has grown to nearly 1,000 full- and part-time students from across the United States and nearly 50 other countries. In addition to its flagship degree programs, thousands of working professionals enroll in the Schack Institute s executive education, diploma, and career advancement programs each year. An anchor of real estate academia s engagement with industry, the Institute is home to the REIT Center, the Center for the Sustainable Built Environment, and the newly established Urban Lab. In addition, the Institute hosts national industry events, including annual conferences on real estate capital markets and the REIT sector. Under the direction of the Schack Institute s faculty, ongoing applied research at the Institute spans an exceptional range of issues in real estate development and investment, urban economics, and market structure and regulation.
50TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE ON CAPITAL MARKETS IN REAL ESTATE INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT AND REAL ESTATE FOR THE 21ST CENTURY The NYUSPS Schack Institute of Real Estate will host the 50th Annual Conference on Capital Markets in Real Estate on Thursday, November 16, 2017 at The Pierre in New York City. For half a century, the Capital Markets Conference has been one of the industry s most prominent forums on the state of commercial real estate capital markets and investment activity. Once again this year, the Conference will convene industry leaders for a vigorous debate on global equity and debt capital flows, institutional and private equity investment activity, and emerging sources of market disruption. Alongside the discussion of real estate capital market conditions, this year s conference also will address the intersection of real estate and infrastructure investment. The importance of infrastructure for the real estate industry has never been more apparent. The health of our cities, opportunities to develop, and the value of our portfolios all depend upon the quality and reliability of the surrounding infrastructure. Amid a growing national consensus on the pressing need for infrastructure investment, industry leaders will discuss real estate s infrastructure priorities and opportunities for partnership between the public and private sectors.
