Graduated Cox @ SMU undergrad ~20 years back.  Great real estate program and, more importantly, network of RE professionals across the nation.  I recommend it highly.  

Never heard of TAMU so I can't speak to their program.

Go Ponies.

 

Thanks for the feedback, I’ve heard great things about the SMU program. TAMU is Texas A&M.

 

Ah, OK, definitely heard of that, just never heard that acronym so my apologies there.

FWIW, I've worked 3 firms since graduation - private REIT, public REIT, regional family owned operator.  Each one of them had at least one SMU Cox grad in the office.  Executive level 2 of 3 times.
