CRE Immersion Program

NAIOP has partnered with like-minded organizations to offer summer immersion programs that focus on commercial real estate. These programs are offered in collaboration with universities across the U.S. and are specifically geared toward top students of diverse backgrounds.


During the program, students explore the future of the built environment, including:

  • Careers in design, planning, engineering and management.
  • Technology, innovation and creating cool places to work, shop and have fun.
  • Tours of top local projects.
  • Learning from industry leaders.

Commercial real estate is a booming industry that is seeking its next generation of leaders. To learn about NAIOP's ongoing programs for diversity in commercial real estate and potentially launching a program in your market, contact Diana Tucker.
