Course Outline: This Law Center course listing is not for a specific course. Instead, it provides information about an opportunity to obtain the Graduate Certificate in Real Estate from the Stanford Alexander Center for Real Estate at the UH C. T. Bauer College of Business. The graduate certificate credential will show up on your transcript and the Graduate and Professional Programs office at Bauer will issue the certificate. The certificate requires five courses, twelve credits, at Bauer (but these courses can count toward your 90 credits needed to graduate from the Law Center with your J.D.). These courses will provide graduate-level expertise in the business and finance of real estate at all levels.

Information from Bauer about the Graduate Certificate in Real Estate is available at this
link.

Advising about this opportunity occurs at Bauer. Interested students should contact Bauer’s Stanford Alexander Center for Real Estate, contact information available at the above link, and: 713-743-7564 or realestate@bauer.uh.edu
Students will need to work with both Bauer and the Law Center’s Office of Student Affairs (OSA). There will be a registration process at Bauer to get into the certificate. The Bauer web site shows that fifteen credits are needed for the certificate, but Bauer will use your 1L property course in place of the course FINA 7381 – Principles of Real Estate to satisfy three of those fifteen credits. There will also be course registration that will involve OSA at the Law Center.

Course Notes: After having consulted with Bauer for advising for this graduate certificate, J.D. students must see the Law Center’s Office of Student Affairs (OSA) for approval to register for these Bauer courses.
To Contact OSA: 713-743-2182 or LawOSA@uh.edu

Note: obtaining the Graduate Certificate in Real Estate will require a J.D. student to take all twelve of their available non-law credits at Bauer dedicated to the certificate. See section II.K of the J.D. student handbook. There is no waiver of the twelve-credit limit for the Bauer certificate.
