See Why Students Love UH at Sugar Land!!!
Following the vision of University of Houston President Renu Khator, the UH Technology Division at the Cullen College of Engineering is beginning its journey to Sugar Land. The University extended its reach into Fort Bend County to connect with regional industry and future Coogs. The Technology Division at the Cullen College of Engineering building opened at UH at Sugar Land in 2019, featuring state-of-the-art labs, classrooms, and meeting spaces.
While many of the College’s programs have called Sugar Land home for the past few years, others soon will be moving to Fort Bend County and will enjoy the benefits of new partnerships and opportunities. The recent legislative session approved funding for a second Technology Division at the Cullen College of Engineeringy building at UH at Sugar Land.
The move won’t be all at once. The expectation is that all programs and departments will be at UH at Sugar Land by 2025.
