University of Houston receives $5 million grant from Houston Endowment
Date:12/15/2010

"Graduate students' success is a top priority for my administration because it is consistent with our goal of being a nationally competitive Tier One university," said UH President Renu Khator. "I want to thank the Houston Endowment for this generous grant, which shows strong community support for the university and its aspirations."

The Ph.D. initiative is a crucial part of a broad plan designed to address a number of issues at UH, including enrollment, retention, graduation rates, facilities upkeep and expansion and quality of life at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

UH is focused on becoming the next university in Texas to achieve Tier One status, a designation that would reap a number of benefits, including access to millions more in state funding. The additional funding would be used to improve student education, attract and retain more high-quality faculty members, leverage more federal research dollars, increase technology transfer to the private sector and attract new companies to the Houston area.
