- Advise and assist the Associate Provost in facilitating information and resource sharing, coordination, visibility, and collaboration among existing initiatives.
- Provide initiatives with a cohesive organizational structure.
- Assist in defining and developing new initiatives based on the mutually beneficial needs of the University, the educational community of Houston and beyond.
- Assist in pursuing funding for current and new initiatives.
Chaired by the Associate Provost, The Education Outreach Council meets monthly during the academic year.
