Scholarship recipients\u2019 career goals span the real estate industry.<\/em><\/p>\n

Baruk plans to get her sales license, undertake graduate work and likely pursue a career in property management, with both a financial and socially conscious orientation.<\/p>\n

\u201cI like the idea of investing in properties to rent, and am interested in the tenant-landlord relationship,\u201d she said. \u201cBy renting, the owner is helping others, and is generating income, which helps him or her.\u201d<\/p>\n

Miller, who holds a degree in finance from FIU and who worked for an engineering firm for 12 years, has family members who can \u201cbuild a house from scratch.\u201d<\/p>\n

She now has her Florida real estate license, and plans to obtain a general contractor\u2019s license and launch a real estate construction and property preservation company<\/p>\n

\u201cMy education, an internship I have with MCO Construction and my licenses will enable me to have a career in an area that has always been an interest for me,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Hollander promotes FIU\u2019s strengths.<\/em><\/p>\n

In accepting the New Member of the Year award, Hollander \u201cencouraged all the CREW members to reach out to me and FIU to fill their needs for smart new employees and interns.\u201d<\/p>\n

The awards were presented on December 12, 2012 at a luncheon at the Four Seasons that drew more than 100 real estate attorneys, brokers, owners and lenders. A third FIU student, Francine Rozental, studying for a master\u2019s in interior architecture, also was awarded a $1,000 scholarship.<\/p>\n
