The University of Houston
Founded in 1927 and currently led by President Renu Khator , the
University of Houston is the
largest public research university in Houston and the third largest
university in Texas offering undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral
programs. Located in Houston's historic Third Ward and dedicated to
serving as an impactful partner within its community, UH is the
oldest of the four UHS universities and recognized as an R1
institution by the Carnegie Foundation for its high level of
research activity and home to a Phi Beta Kappa chapter. With a
University footprint that encompasses its Houston campus and
significant instructional site s in Katy and Sugar Land that further UH's
learning, research, and community engagement endeavors, the
University is home to more than 3,000 tenured, tenure-track,
instructional, clinical and research faculty; distinguished faculty
members include Tony Award winners as well as 22 members of the
National Academies of Science and Engineering. As a complement to
its traditional academic offerings, UH's institutional presence
also extends well beyond its campuses and into its students'
communities through thriving extended education and online programs.
Emblematic of its commitment to fostering a university environment
dedicated to the success of students from diverse backgrounds, UH
is proudly designated as a Hispanic-serving Institution (HSI) and
Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-serving
(AANAPISI) institution. In Fall 2022, UH enrolled approximately
47,000 students in more 277 undergraduate and graduate academic
programs with approximately 8,400 students housed in nine
residential communities. With more than 500 registered student
organizations and 17 NCAA Division 1 intercollegiate sports teams,
campus life at UH is vibrant and engaging. UH's student body ranks
second in the nation among research universities for its racial and
ethnic diversity and is very international in composition with
students from more than 130 nations. Students choose from 114
majors and more than 150 graduate and professional programs housed
in 16 academic colleges and schools and an interdisciplinary Honors
College. UH's programs are nationally recognized, including 17
ranked among the Top 50 in the country.
With more than $250 million in research expenditures in FY 2022,
UH's research enterprise includes nine national research centers,
over 25 university research centers and institutes, and the newly
launched Presidential
Frontier Faculty program to hire 100 university-wide integrated
interdisciplinary faculty. As an institution that ranks amongst the
top 100 global universities for patents, UH fosters a research
environment that enables scholars to explore emerging areas and
work more effectively with industry, other research organizations,
and the community. With this goal in mind, the University has
established five interdisciplinary research areas – Cyber and
Physical Security, Drug Discovery and Development, Sustainable
Communities and Infrastructure, Accessible Health Care, and Energy
Security and Transition – creating powerful hubs of creativity
where teams of researchers from a wide range of disciplines
collaborate across traditional boundaries to bring research
knowledge to bear on issues of intellectual, scientific, social,
economic, environmental and cultural importance.
At the University of Houston, we not only dream big dreams, we also
collaborate to achieve them. Building on a trajectory of
accelerated research activity, the University is pursuing a bold
initiative to increase research and scholarly output by 50 percent
in five years. New faculty will join a university with a growing
number of nationally funded research centers and an aggressive
agenda to leverage science to make a transformative impact locally,
nationally, and across the globe.
Exemplifying its commitment to improving the lives of those it
serves, in 2017 UH had an annual economic impact of $6.4 billion on the Greater Houston
area – and $7.7 billion on Texas – awards more than 11,000 degrees
annually, and has nearly 306,900 alumni, many of whom live and work
in Texas. Moreover, UH is a member of the Texas Medical Center ,
whose member institutions strive to advance patient care, research,
and education in Houston and the founding partner of the Houston GPS
initiative driven by a coalition of community colleges and
universities dedicated to closing equity gaps in student
success.
UH Strategic Plan – “Together, We Rise. Together, We
Soar.”
UH's bold plan for the future, “ Together, We Rise.
Together, We Soar ” pursues the University's vision to build a
top 50 public university by pursuing five over-arching goals:
• Goal 1 – Student Success – Provide a top tier, inclusive
