Ever considered a career in property? It is more than just selling houses...


Pathways to Property is a fully-funded (students won't pay anything at all to attend), 4-day residential programme at the Henley Business School, University of Reading during which you will find out all about the real estate sector. This opportunity is not to be missed, and will really stand out on your personal statement or CV as independent research into a future degree course and / or career.
Please read on to find out more.


















An opportunity for Year 12 students to attend  a four day, fully funded Summer School at the University of Reading to learn about a career in property.

Every day we are influenced by the built environment around us – shops, offices, industrial buildings, houses and the surrounding countryside all have an impact on the way we live. Did you ever wonder how these properties are developed, whether the buildings going up in our cities are sustainable or how much they are worth? The Pathways to Property Summer School allows students the chance to explore the property industry in more depth. With such a huge variety of roles, from a building surveyor or town planner to a sustainability consultant or financial analyst, there is a role to suit any skillset or personality.

Date: 22-25th July 2019
Venue: University of Reading
Who: Year 12 students from state schools/colleges considering a career in property – either through University or through an apprenticeship
Cost: Nothing! All food, accommodation and travel costs are covered
