​​The University of Houston (UH) and Houston Community College (HCC) have created a unique engineering partnership:  the UH/HCC Engineering Academy.

The UH/HCC Engineering Academy students are co-enrolled at both institutions from the moment they are accepted into the Academy. Core curriculum courses will be completed through HCC while the engineering courses will be taken from the UH Cullen College of Engineering faculty at the University of Houston at Katy. UH/HCC Engineering Academy students were official UH Engineering Cougars from the very first day!

After completing all Academy requirements, students then transition to the UH Main campus to complete their bachelor’s degrees in Civil, Electrical, Computer, Industrial or Mechanical Engineering. Academy requirements are designed to be completed in one or two years.​

In addition, UH/HCC Engineering Academy students will have access to 3 new engineering degrees that can be completed at UH at Katy: Systems Engineering, Computer Engineering & Analytics, and Construction Engineering.
