Faculty COUNCIL


Welcome to the University of Houston Faculty COUNCIL

Welcome to the pages of the UH Faculty Council website. Here, we hope you will find the informational resources you are looking for. Our goal when developing and managing this website is to bring under one umbrella a variety of links and resources that might impact the day-to-day work of a faculty member. Of course, we wish to also provide information on the workings of the faculty council itself and on all the proceedings and documents related to the council committees. In that sense, the council website is designed to be both “outward-looking,” that is, a resource for UH faculty and “inward-looking,” that is, a resource for faculty council members.

UH Together

The Faculty Council encourages all faculty to attend the 18th Annual State of the University Address by President Renu Khator on Thursday, October 8, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. in Moores Opera House. This year's address will take us on a journey through 100 years of historic transformation, celebrating the University’s achievements and outlining a vision for the future during this special centennial year. State of the University is a long-standing UH tradition that highlights the institution's collective accomplishments and future priorities. 

We hope you will join your colleagues for this important university-wide event. For those unable to attend in person, a livestream link will be made available through official UH channels. Please visit the State of the University website for updates.

Follow-Up on Micromobility Parking

Thank you for the continued feedback regarding bicycle and scooter parking on campus. The University has been reviewing current micromobility parking needs and assessing areas where additional designated parking may be beneficial, particularly in locations experiencing increased demand.

As part of these ongoing efforts, several priority areas have been identified for potential improvements, and plans are being developed to expand the availability of bicycle and scooter parking across campus. The goal is to provide more convenient and secure parking options for students, faculty, and staff while supporting the University's broader micromobility initiatives. We appreciate the community's input and will continue to share updates as these enhancements move forward.
