The Energy Coalition

The Energy Coalition We are the first collaborative environment that fosters multidisciplinary communication and collaborations among various colleges and organizations.

We are the Energy Coalition. The University of Houston has several Colleges that excel Individually, but rarely do Colleges communicate and collaborate with one another. WE are that solution. As the Energy Coalition, we are the first collaborative environment that fosters multidisciplinary communication and collaborations amongst various colleges and organizations. We are the LARGEST STUDENT ORGA

NIZATION ON CAMPUS with over 2700 members campus wide. With 26 student organizations being apart of the coalition, we are a one-stop-outlet to a wide variety of multidisciplinary opinions. Backed by the UH Energy initiative, we provide input for large scale events, such as the UH Energy symposium, which features High-profile industry professional and political representatives.
