The Schack Institute of Real Estate:

The Schack Institute 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. More than 50 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.

Ideal candidates will hold a master's degree and have a minimum of 5-8 years progressive work experience; a demonstrable record of teaching, academic or classroom experience; and significant industry and professional success, honor and distinction. Well-qualified candidates without prior teaching experience will be considered.
