The UHCBA provides a foundation for developing and transferring the information, tools and skills energy decision makers need. The Houston setting and linkage with the Houston energy community provides unique opportunities for interaction with the international energy industries.

Around the world, energy sector reform is gaining ground as governments and societies seek new solutions. We take interdisciplinary approaches to three key concepts in the equation.

• The role of government and policy models for energy development.
• The business/government interface.
• Corporate strategies and mangement responses to more competitive energy markets.

Our focus is on the policy and regulatory frameworks needed for resource and infrastructure development - the ingredients for successful, "bankable" energy investments--as well as on optimal investment strategies.

The Institute's goal is to be a leader among university-based energy programs for our focus on strategic thinking about the energy businesses, policy and trade.
