The University of Houston is dedicated to providing “opportunities for student learning, discovery, and engagement…in a real-world setting.” Student learning and discovery are best accomplished through direct experience and reflection.  The Cougar Initiative to Engage (CITE) will increase the number of high-impact co-curricular activities that provide direct real-world experience, preparing students for success in their lives and careers upon graduation. CITE will also increase the number of UH students participating in co-curricular activity as part of their undergraduate education. CITE is an opportunity to have a truly transformative impact on students and the broader university community.  See co-curricular learning activities previously and currently funded by CITE. 

Student Learning Outcomes

In all CITE programs, students develop skills in at least two essential competencies that will allow them to navigate real-world, professional situations: Problem Solving  Effective Communication  Teamwork Cultural Competency  Social Responsibility  Ethical Decision Making See resources for developing student learning outcomes for your co-curricular learning project.
