I thought that this "Master of Real Estate Development and Urbanism" sounded pretty good. Here is the description from the University of Miami website:
The Master of Real Estate Development and Urbanism is an interdisciplinary one-year graduate program that combines the strengths of the University of Miami’s School of Architecture, Business Administration, and Law to create a world-class program that blends the fundamentals of real estate development with livable community planning and design. Courses towards the Master of Real Estate Development and Urbanism begin in Fall 2008 and the full one-year program launches in Fall 2009:
The Master of Real Estate Development and Urbanism draws on the combined interdisciplinary strengths of: the School of Architecture, an international leader in urbanism and livable community design; the School of Business Administration, named the number one business school in Florida by the Wall Street Journal and the number five business school in the nation by Hispanic Business; the School of Law, which offers an LLM degree in Real Property; the College of Engineering, with strong civil, architectural and environmental engineering programs; and the Urban Studies Program, which includes faculty from the College of Arts and Sciences.
The Master of Real Estate Development and Urbanism program is administered by the School of Architecture, led by Dean Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk. The University of Miami’s School of Architecture was ranked number one in the nation for the study of New Urbanism in a survey conducted by New Urban News, and was awarded the John Nolen Medal for Contributions to Urbanism in Florida in 2007.
The Master of Real Estate Development and Urbanism program is designed to provide students with the tools and practical experiences needed to compete in the fast-paced and changing world of urban real estate development.

Free admission to the LBA, or, discounted rate?
At least they will have training in smarter growth...
If they learn about the perils of sprawl they might not buy into it later in their career. They could become supporters of density in the right places. It could happen. Why not train students as if it could?
