As part of our FREE Pathways to Property programme, the Henley Business School at the University of Reading is running a 4-day residential Summer School on 8th – 11th July 2025

 It gives r Year 12 students real insights into the property sector, a taste of university life and more   information on the exciting career opportunities available. 

 

 Pathways to Property is designed to raise awareness about the many different careers within the   property industry. Supported by the industry, we run programmes for Year 12 students throughout   the  year and continue to support them after the course with work experience, mentoring and   bursaries.

 

The fully funded four-day course is ideal for students who have an interest in the property sector and who would like to learn more about the industry. Over the course of four days, your students will:


 
 

Sit in on taster lectures

 
 

 
 

Visit a large development site and learn how they operate

 
 

 
 

Get involved in group projects and debates

 
 

 
 

Develop key skills such as networking and presentation skills


 
 

Attend a mini careers fair with leading names from the industry


 
 

Hear from industry professionals about the incredible career opportunities available via degrees and apprenticeships


 
 

Stay in our university halls, gaining a first-hand experience of university life


Students who attend our Summer School will be invited to carry out a work experience placement in October and participate in an e-mentoring programme.


We will continue to support students through our Propel alumni programme sending them relevant information. If they choose to undertake a property industry focused degree or qualification, they will be eligible to apply for up to £30,000 in bursary funding and if they study Real Estate at Reading University they will receive a guaranteed conditional contextual offer plus a welcome bursary.
