CEPT University introduces a two-year, full-time Master of Business Administration (MBA) Programme in Real Estate to prepare graduates for management careers across India’s expanding property and infrastructure sectors. Offered through the university’s Faculty of Management, the specialised programme begins with an intake of 32 students and carries an annual fee of Rs. 6.02 lakh for the 2026–27 academic year.
The programme aims to develop professionals with expertise in real estate development, property investment, financing and consultancy. Its curriculum combines management education with technical, spatial and design knowledge, drawing on CEPT University’s strengths in architecture, planning, technology and design. The university develops the programme in consultation with an industry advisory group comprising representatives from Bakeri Group, Arvind Smart Spaces, Capri Global Capital, Colliers International India and Henley Business School.
The academic structure covers important areas such as capital markets, land and property market dynamics, project development, sustainable development, design differentiation and firm-level management. Students also gain practical exposure through studio-based learning, internships, live projects and field-based assignments involving real estate developers, consultancies and allied organisations. Industry professionals and university faculty jointly deliver the programme to connect academic concepts with professional practices.
Candidates holding a recognised bachelor’s degree in any discipline from an Indian institution are eligible to apply, provided they complete the qualification through regular full-time mode. General category applicants must secure at least 50 per cent aggregate marks, while reserved category candidates require a minimum of 45 per cent. International applicants must also meet the 50 per cent aggregate requirement. Although professional experience is preferred, it is not mandatory for admission.
Applicants can submit valid scores from the Common Admission Test (CAT), Common Management Admission Test (CMAT), Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), Xavier Aptitude Test (XAT), AIMS Test for Management Admissions (ATMA) or Management Aptitude Test (MAT). Candidates without these scores must appear for CEPT University’s online postgraduate entrance test.
The university also provides merit-based and means-based scholarships, along with financial assistance through student and teaching assistantships. Its international academic network includes more than 40 collaborations with institutions across Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Through this specialised MBA, CEPT University aims to address the growing demand for skilled management professionals in real estate development, investment, finance and urban development.
