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

Mark your calendars! The first full Faculty Council meeting will take place on November 19, from 12:00 to 2:00 p.m. Hybrid Meeting: Room 240, Bates Law Building.  An agenda for each meeting of the Faculty Council will be posted on its website at least seven (7) days before the meeting — so stay tuned for details!

Each week, we shine a light on a key SAM or MAPP policy that directly affects faculty. This week’s focus: Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Artificial Intelligence is expected to be a transformative force across daily tasks, research, and teaching. The University of Houston System is committed to ensuring that all constituents can use AI tools, such as Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, and Google Gemini, safely and responsibly. This security and privacy guidance may evolve as circumstances change and the System develops further policy regarding AI use.

Café Conversation with Administrators: The UH Office of Faculty Engagement and Development (FED) is again hosting this event in the Faculty Café (E. Cullen, basement, room 33). They are casual – no presentations, just conversations on whatever topics are brought up. Cornell and Neuhauser have already hosted conversations.
