THE UNIVERSITY CENTER
THE UNIVERSITY CENTER
Six universities and North Harris Montgomery Community College District
formed a multi-institutional teaching center to provide unduplicated bachelor’s
and master’s degrees to a service area, specifically north Houston,
north Harris County, and Montgomery County. The
University Center provides a critical link for community development
and individual opportunity to an estimated 1.2 million citizens.
Sam Houston State University is joined by Prairie View A&M University,
Texas A&M University, Texas Southern University, University of Houston,
and University of Houston-Downtown as well as the colleges of NHMCCD:
Kingwood College, Montgomery College, North Harris College, and Tomball
College.
The University Center serves
as the site for multi-level instruction in a classroom/laboratory facility
of approximately 72,000 square feet adjacent to the Montgomery College
campus providing an interactive, technology-based extension that connects
all of the colleges of NHMCCD and the partner universities. The goal is
to provide a facility and an interconnected telecommunications system
for delivery of unduplicated baccalaureate and master’s degree programs,
advanced work training, and professional development at the same quality
level as the university home-base of the programs.
Sam Houston State University has approval from the Texas Higher Education
Coordinating Board to offer various degree programs at The University
Center. Courses completed as part of these programs carry residence credit.
