IDEAS Academy
Developing creative leaders for a digital and global 21st century
To develop a complete mind: Study the science of art; Study the art of science. Learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else.Leonardo da Vinci
Explore, Imagine, Create!
IDEAS Academy at Houston Community College's West Houston Institute prepares students with the mindsets and skillsets most needed today to address the challenges and realize the opportunities of a digital and global 21st century.
“IDEAS” stands for Innovation, Design, and Entrepreneurship in the Arts and Sciences. We believe it is the intersection of these disciplines that will lead to to a more sustainable and resilient future here in Houston and beyond.
