Partnerships


Welcome to Houston’s Community College’s International Initiatives Partnerships section. In a global society, HCC prepares students to address issues that transcend national boundaries while fostering good citizenship. We consider international awareness and experiences to be essential aspects of today’s curriculum.

Houston Community College signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Keuka College (N.Y.) on January 12, 2012.

Keuka College President Dr. Jorge L. Diaz, HCC Chancellor Dr. Mary Spangler and Keuka College Vice President Dr. Gary M. Smith participated in the ceremony.

The Houston Community College Spring Branch Campus is in the heart of Houston's Korean Community, and HCC and the Korean Community have worked closely together on a number of projects. A Korean delegation toured HCC's Spring Branch and Katy campuses during a visit to Houston Community College Northwest College on Friday, Oct. 21, 2011. HCC Northwest President Dr. Zachary Hodges and HCC Office of International Initiatives Executive Director Gigi Do hosted the group.
"In 1999, we obtained a small grant from NAFSA to host a first National Korean Cultural workshop at Northwest College. This event started our long lasting friendship with the local Korean community in Houston."
-- HCC Office of International Initiatives Executive Director Gigi Do
