Scholarships
The University of Houston Engineering Alumni is pleased to offer scholarships for students majoring in Engineering.
SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATIONS WILL BE OPEN ON JANUARY 2ND
E-Week
The E-Week Reception is one of the Cullen College Alumni Association’s signature events, held each February in alignment with National Engineers Week — one of the largest STEM celebrations in the United States. Engineers Week is dedicated to recognizing the incredible accomplishments of engineers, technicians, and technologists, while also inspiring the next generation by introducing K–12 students to engineering and technology.
Our E-Week Reception brings alumni, industry leaders, and students together for an evening of recognition and connection. Each year, we honor outstanding students from the Cullen College of Engineering and provide a platform for industry professionals to engage directly with these talented future leaders.
Sponsors play a special role in this event, with the opportunity to award a scholarship to a deserving student. The selection is based on sponsor-defined criteria, ensuring that each scholarship reflects the sponsor’s unique values and priorities.
The E-Week Reception is more than a celebration — it’s a bridge between alumni, industry, and students, inspiring and supporting the next generation of Cougar Engineers.
Annual Meeting
The Cullen College Alumni Association’s Annual Meeting is a signature event — a celebration of our achievements and a look ahead at the future of Cougar Engineering. Alumni come together to connect with old friends, meet new alumni, and share in the vision of strengthening our community for years to come. It’s also a lot of fun — a chance to reconnect, swap stories, enjoy Cougar spirit, and learn more about today’s student organizations that are shaping the next generation of engineers.
This annual tradition is held on the first Tuesday in August.
