Well I did my research and found 3 Masters programs Iām interested in. Theyāre all online and made for people that work full-time. Two of the programs are Masters of Science in Real Estate and the other one is an MBA Concentration: Real Estate Development.
I absolutely love how when I research real estate development careers on LinkedIn, the degree requirements state āconstruction management, architecture, finance, blah blah blahā.
Then thereās also the other cool non-constructiony (is that a word?) commercial real estate careers. The more doors that get opened, the better.
Cool! Iām gonna apply to all of them since Spring 2025 applications are open. The sooner I knockout the essays and letters of recommendation, the better.
Go kill it man! Iām currently looking at an MBA with a concentration in Project Management.

Welp, I did it!!!
I graduated summa cum laude with my degree in construction management and minor in business administration yesterday.
I worked my tail off during college from the start of my freshman year. Throughout the years I experienced all of those lectures, presentations, interviews, and homework.
Iāve had the opportunity to be in a leadership position via a student organization for the first time ever in my life. I also earned my way to complete 6 internships and/or co-ops in the field Iām studying along the way. Iāve gained lifelong friends and built great relationships.
Since I was away from my parents and anyone from my home time, I learned a lot about myself. The best thing Iāve gained from my time at college was confidence. I became a more confident man who believes in himself and is more spontaneous. I KNOW what kind of man I want to be and will continue to take action to do so.
Congrats to me!!! The sky is the limit!!! Letās keep the train moving!!!
I also ate a 22 oz bone-in ribeye, shrimp, lobster mac and cheese, and some cheesecake at some fancy restaurant yesterday lol.
Dad: āYou deserve itā
Damn dude, I didnāt know you got grades like that. Great work!
6 internships! Thatās crazy.
Congradulations.
Thanks Flats!
Gonna be 7 starting on June 10
And then I start my full-time career in late August 
7! Thatās awesome, way to take advantage of the access. How many were required by school.
Which job/path did you decide to start up in August?
Thatās a huge PR right there, @tlgains. Awesome work, congratulations, and know that the best is yet to come!
I only needed to do one summer internship to graduate.
I will be working at a large general contractor starting out as a Junior Estimator. Most general contractors tend to pigeon people into specific market sectors: data centers, Multifamily, sports/entertainment, industrial. But, there is no pigeon holing here so thereās opportunity to see different kinds of projects.
Once once year of estimating is completed, Iāll be an on-site Project Engineer. This company has a culture of supporting individual goals, so they let you bounce around to gain new skills or whatever.
I intend of giving myself the necessary skills to be well rounded in order to have a long lasting career.
Congratulations Tim!! What an amazing accomplishment. Youāre going to be (and likely already are) a force to be reckoned with.
Hell yea! Youāre going to crush it, too much drive not to!
Glory to the boilerman!!!

Congratulations big man!
