succeed in every way and make rapid progress once I graduate toward my
central professional goal of owning my own real estate business.. Life
will go on in increasingly sustainable and even more equitable ways..
Your program's very existence is one reason why I have hope in this

comes to all things green, sustainable, renewable and innovative,
especially in construction and design, alongside real estate
development..
KNUST's master's degree in real estate fits perfectly with my strong
desire to make a significant contribution to community development and
improvement.. The tangible nature of real estate captured my imagination
and piqued my interest, leading me to read widely about the field,
especially those related to design, my second passion.. I.. I seek a
comprehensive and balanced understanding of the many aspects of

strengthen the scope and depth of my knowledge exponentially..

Company serving some of the most exclusive residential areas and Light
Industries of the nation's capital.. I consider my responsibility to
maintain finances and assessments as a unique experience that will help
me get started and excel in your program at KNUST.. I am also grateful
to have developed an improved understanding of the Ghanaian real estate
market, especially the risks and opportunities unique to the region.. I

the business and asset management sector, equip me with the management
and analytical skills that I believe will be essential for a career in

Nothing excites me more than raising awareness about financial risk
factors Nothing excites me as much as increasing my awareness of the
financial risk factors associated with property development. My work with
the Real Estate firms has helped me better understand the big picture,
the larger environment in which property companies operate, and the
international marketplace, especially concerning real estate. I valued
the opportunity that these work experiences gave me to delve deeply into
the fields of management, finance, marketing, and corporate strategy and
give me rigorous training in vital numerical skills such as financial
mathematics and the application of game theory. I particularly enjoyed
the international aspects of the course, which allowed me to understand
business from a comparative and global perspective, which I regard as
vital, especially given my interest in real estate.
Thank you for considering my application to MSc Real Estate at KNUST.
