The Graaskamp Center's main goal is to serve as a link between Real Estate faculty and students, alumni, the real estate professional community, governmental agencies and the general public. We hope to instill students with our core values and to create a valuable and life-long network for learning and professional growth. The Graaskamp Center, renamed in honor of the late James A. Graaskamp in 2007, creates excellent networking opportunities for students, board members, alumni, faculty, and professionals to meet and share their knowledge and expertise. Events include board meetings, guest lecture series, and activities with the Wisconsin Real Estate Alumni Association (WREAA) and UW Real Estate Club. We also provide advising and mentoring to help match students with appropriate career opportunities. Scholarships and fellowships are available to qualified students, along with occasional opportunities to work on consulting projects with faculty.
