Mission Statement
Huston-Tillotson University is a faith-based historically black college and university (HBCU) nestled in the vibrant heart of downtown Austin, Texas. The institution provides a robust liberal arts and STEM education through market-driven certifications, associate, baccalaureate, master’s degrees, and centers of excellence. HT remains committed to its legacy of educating a mosaic community of learners while cultivating innovative leaders who are dedicated to academic excellence and service.
Vision Statement
Huston-Tillotson University commits to cultivating the forerunners of innovation. We aspire to prepare graduates who are pioneers, socially engaged leaders and thinkers, demonstrated through academic excellence and service.
Huston-Tillotson University proudly celebrates National Intern Day by recognizing our students who dedicated their summer to gaining valuable hands-on experience through internships.
Internships provide students with the opportunity to apply classroom knowledge in real-world professional settings while strengthening essential career readiness skills, including professionalism, communication, critical thinking, and teamwork. These experiences not only prepare students for successful careers but also help them explore industries and professions aligned with their academic and career goals.
This summer, HT students completed internships with outstanding organizations, including ETS-Lindgren, the Austin Independent School District Finance Department, Godsey Law Firm, Salesforce, and many other local, regional, and national employers. Through these opportunities, our students made meaningful contributions to their host organizations while gaining invaluable professional experience.
Internships also benefit employers by introducing fresh perspectives, innovative ideas, and the opportunity to cultivate future talent. These partnerships are an investment in the next generation of leaders and create pathways to long-term career success.

Huston-Tillotson University (HT) has partnered with Teachworthy to provide Education students with a streamlined pathway to Texas teacher certification while earning their bachelor’s degree.
Beginning this fall, students majoring in education will have the option to pursue either a certification track through Teachworthy’s state-approved Educator Preparation Program (EPP) or a non-certification track designed for careers in education beyond the classroom.
Students who choose the certification track will be dually enrolled in both HT’s education program and Teachworthy’s EPP. The partnership allows students to complete most certification requirements before graduation, positioning them to transition more quickly into the teaching profession with both their degree and a clear pathway to certification.
“Our priority has always been providing students with a high-quality academic experience and clear pathways to professional success,” said Dr. Archibald Vanderpuye, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. “This partnership ensures that students who want to become Texas educators have the guidance and support to do so.”
