What can real estate do for an architecture student

[Brooks Kindt]

So, I am pretty new to this site and I don't know if this is deemed acceptable, but I figured my best bet for advice would be from professionals and people in the field. So, I am currently going to school for Architecture and I enjoy it, but I am also interested in real estate I have been for awhile. I am 20 years old now and I know I have awhile for my degree in Architecture, but I was recently given the opportunity to work pretty close with a person that works for a real estate company. I am wondering what would be the benefits of going into the field as some extra pocket Money and what can I do with a real estate background and a degree in Architecture? If you have any readings, advice, or anything that can help me I would really appreciate it!
