The United States government designates Texas Southern University a Transportation Security Center of Excellence, a designation held by only five others nationwide. This is, therefore, a community offering excellent educational, recreational, cultural, and rental locations nearby and within the university, for both local and international faculty members, students, and visitors.
A large portion of the undergraduate and graduate students and faculty comes from all over the United States. Every state in the country, including Puerto Rico, has ample representation, besides numerous native Texans. Do not be surprised to find residents from China, Central America, Africa, and Europe too. A visitor from anywhere in the world would feel right at home in such a community.
Within minutes of Texas Southern University are Houston’s professional baseball and basketball venues. Famous teams such as The Astros and The Rockets have their venues here. World-class art museums and opera performances around Houston make for wonderful days and evenings out. The university also hosts the award-winning Ocean of Soul Marching Band Jazz Ensemble.
For visitors with a working vacation in mind, the Toyota center, St. Joseph Medical Center, Minute Mind Park, George R. Martin Convention Center, Discovery Green, and Roots Square will cater for your exhibition and business needs.
