HCC and Space Center Houston sign memorandum of understanding

What they’re saying

At the HCC West Houston Institute, representatives from HCC and Space Center Houston gathered to mark the significance of this collaboration.

“Houston is known across the world as the city that helps humanity reach beyond the horizon,” Fisher said. “It is a place where bold ideas become reality, where discovery drives progress and where innovation shapes the future. Our nation's journeys into space have been in the heart of that story for generations.”

Meanwhile, Harris said when two entities come together in a constructive way, the results can be immense.

“This partnership brings new opportunities to connect education, workforce development and real-world experiences,” Harris said. “Together, we can help learners develop skills, confidence and capabilities needed to thrive in a rapidly changing world.”

Next steps

Webster said there are plans for courses to take place this summer, but officials are still figuring out where they will take place within HCC.
