Whilst still studying for his Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration at the University of Regensburg, Johann Weiß gained valuable practical experience, particularly in real estate management and fund management. After several years’ professional experience in the fields of fund management and real estate valuation, as well as in management consultancy, he completed a Master’s degree in Real Estate Management (M.Sc.RE) at the International Real Estate Business School (IRE|BS), specialising in real estate investment and finance, as well as real estate management and development.
From the start of his Master’s programme in November 2020 until April 2021, Mr Weiß supported the Centre of Competence for Sustainability in the Real Estate Industry as a research assistant. From May 2021, he worked on sub-project 5 of DFG Research Group 2733: ‘Transformation of Sacred Spaces: Function and Use of Religious Sites in Germany’ (TRANSARA), in cooperation with the University of Bonn, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Sven Bienert (IRE|BS). From June 2023 to May 2026, he continued his work on the DFG research project TRANSARA as a research assistant, and since June 2026, Johann Weiß has been working as a research assistant at the Centre of Competence for Sustainability in the Real Estate Industry.
