Texas Learning and Computation Center (TLC2)

The Texas Learning and Computation Center (TLC2) at UH actively seeks opportunities to host summer camps or campus tours.

TLC2’s mission is to support and foster interdisciplinary research, education and training at UH and beyond. We take our mission seriously and especially like to encourage young students to enter the science and technology fields.

We can help spark their imagination and interest in science by:
- offering a technology demonstration by TLC2-affiliated researchers in our high-tech classrooms (built with NASA funding)
- showing 2D/3D simulations in our newly-renovated, state-of-the-art Visualization Theater
- coordinating with other research centers on campus tours
- coordinating with non-UH organizations, like NASA, to have educational materials for students and teachers
- arranging other activities to encourage students to enter the science and technology fields (and make UH their education destination!)

UH summer programs, among others, that we have hosted in the past include:
- ExxonMobil Bernard Harris Summer Science Camp
- Girls Reaching and Demonstrating Excellence (GRADE)
- All-N-One

For an organization to request an event at TLC2, they should contact:
