Club Overview

The HBS Real Estate Club is one of the oldest and largest clubs on the Harvard Business School campus, boasting a membership of over 200 students. The Club is entirely student-managed and financially operates through the support of its members and very importantly the generosity of corporate sponsors. The Club's mission is to expose the HBS community to a broad range of real estate industry topics, and to provide Club members with unique social, career-oriented, and professional networking opportunities with each other, with other graduate school real estate clubs, and with current real estate professionals.

Distinguished Speaker Series

Each year the Club brings to campus a number of CEOs, Chairmen, and Senior Executives from leading corporations across the spectrum of real estate functions. These speakers present to students on a range of topics that include emerging industry trends, innovation in real estate and more personal life lessons for a career in real estate. We are always seeking additional speakers for this program and would gratefully welcome any suggests that you may have.

Career Development and Networking

The club actively seeks to bring career opportunities to both 1st and 2nd year students. This is done by hosting company presentations in first half of the year and supplementing this with various career panels where industry professionals provide their independent view on potential graduate career options. In addition, the Club operates a mailing list, which in conjunction with the career services “Job Bank” advertises summer and full time work opportunities. Should your organization have real estate positions vacant, please feel free to contact us to discuss how we can best support you in finding a suitable candidate.

Real Estate Symposium at Harvard Business School

An annual event, the Real Estate Symposium brings together leading professionals and students from across Boston to discuss and workshop important global industry issues and trends. Generally consisting of a key note speaker, breakout panels, and a networking dinner, the conference is a highlight of the Club's annual programming. To view last year's Symposium, please click here. The conference is open to all graduate students interested in real estate as well as all professionals affiliated with the HBS Real Estate Club.
