University of Houston - Downtown, Northwest Campus

About Us

The University of Houston-Downtown (UHD) is a publicly-supported, urban university located in Houston's central business district. It draws students from throughout the Greater Houston area. UHD is considered one of the most ethnically diverse liberal arts institutions in the southwest, a distinction that indicates the student body accurately reflects the Houston community's wealth of cultures, languages and nationalities.

Since our students come from various areas across the Greater Houston area, we have multiple campuses to conveniently serve students through out the city. The University offers classes at UHD-Northwest campus (@LSC University Park), UHD-Kingwood campus (@LSC Kingwood) and UHD-CyFair campus (@LSC CyFair). Many students have earned their degree at these locations, enabling them to maximize convenience and fee their time for professional or family obligations.

UHD has remained agile in accommodating the busy lives of our students. We know that students need maximum flexibility in course schedules. You will find a wide variety of class offerings during weekdays, evenings, weekends and even online. No other public university in the city of Houston offers more online degree programs - at the lowest tuition rate.

Whether you are looking for a degree in business, criminal justice, education or any of the other 52 degrees we offer, contact us to find out why UHD is right for you.
