Synthesis Projects

Synthesis projects are designed to challenge students in solving real problems developers are currently experiencing.

Synthesis 1

Students work in teams to analyze and seek solutions. Students investigate a specific parcel of land and are required to perform due diligence, prepare a market and segmentation analysis, define highest and best use(s), design a solution, prepare residual land value analysis, define a product offering, price points, building design, site planning and comparative valuation analysis.

Synthesis 2 

Students work individually to analyze and seek solutions to development of land for an income producing property. Students investigate a specific parcel of land and are required to perform due diligence, prepare a market and segmentation analysis, define highest and best use(s), design a solution, prepare residual land value analysis, define a product offering, price points, building design, site planning and comparative valuation analysis.

Synthesis 3

This is the student’s capstone project. Students work in teams to analyze and seek solutions to development of land for a complex, mixed use project. Students investigate a specific parcel of land and are required to perform due diligence, prepare a market and segmentation analysis, define highest and best use(s), design a solution, prepare residual land value analysis, define a product offering, price points, building design, site planning and comparative valuation analysis.
