The University of Houston System is a public university system in the U.S. state of Texas, comprising four separate and distinct universities. It also owns and holds broadcasting licenses to a public television station (KUHT) and a public radio station (KUHF).

The fourth-largest university system in Texas, the UH System has more than 70,000 students and 495,000 alumni from the four distinct universities.[4] Its flagship institution is the University of Houston, a comprehensive doctoral degree-granting research university of about 43,000 students.[5][6][7][8] The economic impact of the UH System contributes over $3 billion annually to the Texas economy, while generating about 24,000 jobs.[9][10]

The administration is housed in the Ezekiel W. Cullen Building, located on the campus of the University of Houston. The chancellor of the UH System is Renu Khator, who serves concurrently as president of the University of Houston. The System is governed by nine voting-member board of regents, appointed by the Governor of Texas.
