One Campus. Diverse Opportunities.
Lone Star College System purchased the core of the Hewlett Packard North Campus on State Highway 249 at Louetta Road in northwest Harris County in April 2009. The campus was once home to the Compaq World Headquarters.
The purchase has given LSCS 1.2 million square feet of additional space in eight major buildings, as well as parking garages and other support infrastructure, making it one of the largest such acquisitions in higher education history.
Plans are to develop LSC-University Park into a unique, comprehensive learning environment that makes a variety of higher education options convenient and accessible to the residents of this dynamic section of greater Houston.
Community
Located in the heart of the greater Houston corridor with convenient access to major business and activity centers, LSC-University Park offers unsurpassed amenities and opportunities for students, staff and the local community.
The area is comprised of communities ranging from beautiful master-planned subdivisions to traditional neighborhoods to trendy apartment living, all with excellent neighborhood schools.
LSC-University Park is adjacent to the new Vintage Park development lifestyle shopping center. The center is a visual transport to an Italian shopping promenade, the heart of which comes alive with a series of fountains and landscaping all which can be enjoyed by al fresco diners from one of the numerous venues that overlook the nearly one acre pedestrian area.
Location
LSC-University Park is located 20 miles from Houston's central business district in one of the region's most popular residential and commercial locations.
LSC-University Park is only 21 miles from Bush Intercontinental Airport and only four miles north of the Sam Houston Parkway making it easily accessible to students, conference attendees and the local community.
LSCS Administrative Offices
Lone Star College administration and system offices are located in The Woodlands, at 5000 Research Forest Drive. This location is home to the Chancellor, senior administration, system wide administrative offices and the training and development center which also hosts LSCS Board of Trustees meetings.
