Recognized as a community-engaged institution by the Carnegie Foundation, UHD is a comprehensive four-year university offering bachelor's and master's degree programs aimed at career preparation.
From the day our doors opened more than 50 years ago, UHD has expanded to serve the educational needs of America's fourth-largest city. Now, UHD offers bachelor's degrees in 45 areas of study and twelve master's degrees.
We're located right in the heart of Downtown Houston, one of the nation's most culturally diverse metropolitan areas. So naturally, we've created an environment that welcomes and embraces students from all backgrounds.
