About

The UH System at Cinco Ranch is designed to allow students who live in northern Fort Bend County and far western Harris County to take upper-division and graduate-level college courses from one of the constituent institutions of the University of Houston System. At the center, one can earn their bachelor's or master's degree in a variety of areas including history, English, or various fields of science or business. Additionally, those students who are unsure of their undergraduate academic major or who wish to have a hand in designing their own can elect to earn a bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of Houston–Downtown.

The center has also forged a relationship with Houston Community College System, which allow students to seamlessly transfer their credits and continue their education.
