Additionally, the Darden Real Estate Club works closely with the Richard A. Mayo Center for Asset Management and the UVA Center for Real Estate to enhance students' understanding of the real estate industry, build and strengthen Darden's relationships with real estate firms, and provide guidance to its members in their search of careers within the field. The Darden Real Estate Club also focuses on furthering Darden's presence in the real estate community. Read more about Darden's Real Estate Initiative.
