Undergraduate Degree

Bachelor of Science in Design—Housing + Community Development

The Bachelor of Science in Design (BSD) degree with a major in Housing and Community Development (HCD) educates and prepares entry-level real estate development professionals for positions of leadership and influence in market rate and affordable housing developments, in creatively designed and thoughtfully planned neighborhoods and communities, in the revitalization of blighted communities, and in the exemplification of inclusiveness, sustainability and environmental sensitivity found within responsible real estate developments.  HCD graduates may pursue careers in all facets of real estate development including private housing development, publicly sponsored housing and community redevelopment, nonprofit housing agencies, or in postgraduate housing and community development research and education. The BSD degree with a major in Housing and Community Development is offered in conjunction with the School of Extended Education at ASU Downtown Campus, as well as distance-learning and online technologies.
