One of the goals of the Gazarian Real Estate Center is to promote the advancement of real estate research. We conduct and support both academic and industry research with grants for Fresno State faculty interested in real estate topics.
The Gazarian Real Estate Center seeks to award a series of Summer grants for research related to real estate and/or land use. Proposals for these grants are sought from interested full-time faculty from any discipline at Fresno State.
