Support Our Students

There are several methods for supporting our students. We are grateful to those who are already contributing, donating their time to be in our classroom to mentor students or deliver guest lectures; donating their testimony by sharing the goals of the Pappas Program with others in the real estate development and design industry; donating some of their treasure to financially support the Pappas Program, which enable us to reach the goal of a sustaining education program.

We would also like to place our students within the industry during their educational journey. If your company has an internship program for aspiring students, please connect with us so we can share that opportunity with our undergraduate and graduate students.

Contact pappasprogram@ncsu.ed to share your time, testimony, and treasure.

Building Community

The Pappas Real Estate Development Program is in the process of launching an Industry Council. The purpose of the Pappas Industry Council is to foster partnerships, as well as network and engagement between faculty, students, and industry leaders. The Pappas Industry Council will provide support and advice to the Director of the Pappas Real Estate Development Program on matters relating to industry needs and trends, academic programs, student development, societal impact, and strategic thinking.
