Just wondering if there are any university courses in Property in PERTH.
I know there is a tafe course.I am specifically looking into Project Planning.
I know there is a project management course, is it similar you think????
Heres the link

Are you looking at the specifics of project planning or the wider field of project management? The planner's role is specifically to schedule the project ie to organise the order in which the tasks are to be complete includes study of various planning methodologies CPM, PERT, process diagrams etc and how these then relate to a project. Specialist planners work on major projects not for backyard builders (every building course covers planning as it is an essential part of building ie being organised).
Project management courses are wider ranging (often have many specialties eg technology, business, construction etc) and are often a branch of a construction degree. Just to get an idea of what is on offer look at UNSW, UTS, Uni of Newcastle, UWS who all offer B Const Mgt, BBuild B Proj Mgt degrees.
There is a Degree Bachelor of Commerce in Property at Curtin University. Specialises in Property
or you could study Degree in Urban and Regional Planning at Curtin Uni also, this is town planning degree. Project Management courses will only teach you how to manage the project. (any Project field)
PosEnterprises have you done any of these courses?
Im doing a degree in America will be finished in May 2009.
I want to do a post-graduate course.Is there any in Perth?
They are all under-grad if I am correct
Hi Bacon I started the Urban Planning degree done 2 years and got bored of it. Because in the end you need to get a job in local govt first to get salary and experience then try and get a job in private sector. Was not worth the salary sacrifice at the time.
Why do want to learn about real estate courses. The best experience would be to learn from these people here on the forum ask many questions and then go out and buy property and learn from that.
Also check out http://www.invested.com.au they are all investors and into everything from property to shares to business and financial planning.
Hope that helps.
I just finished my Diploma of Project Management at TAFE and now completing my Diploma of Building and Construction also. For interest sake because I work in the industry. Though I would much prefer to study Financial Planning as I like numbers and want to know how to invest my money.
But talk to people on hear who have actually built a property portfolio and have been through and seen it all with regards to recessions, high interest rates etc. They are the people who can mentor you with the right advice. A property course is good for theory but in the real world it is a different ball game.
