The University of Houston announced a new collaboration with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, including a $10 million gift. The gift from HPE will benefit the University’s Data Science Institute and include funding for a scholarship endowment, as well as both funding and equipment to enhance data science research activities.
HPE’s collaboration with the University is part of a larger movement focused on accelerating the development of Houston’s innovation economy, led by organizations like Houston Exponential. The collaboration between HPE and UH will go beyond funding, with HPE leaders serving as lecturers for classes and UH researchers helping to solve complex problems for customers. Students will work on research areas, part of an effort to ensure students and faculty are focused on real-world problems.
The UH Data Science Institute will be renamed the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Data Science Institute in recognition of the alliance. The gift contributes to the University’s $1 billion “Here, We Go“ Campaign, the first major fundraising campaign in more than 25 years, in support of major University initiatives.
