About Us

Since 2008 the ACE Mentor Program Houston has given local high school students an opportunity to learn about careers in architecture, construction, and engineering ACE is a unique partnership between the design and construction industry, educational institutions, and the local community working in collaboration to develop the next generation of the AEC industry.

In this afterschool mentoring program, student teams work directly with professionals from the A E C industry to design real world projects, tour local construction sites, and visit architectural, engineering and construction offices. The program meets weekly from October to April at several mentor locations around Houston.

For students, ACE is an opportunity to learn about the various careers in the design and construction industry and find the best one for them. Working directly with professionals from the industry, students will receive a hands on introduction to principles of architecture, construction, and engineering, as well as receive access to scholarship and internship opportunities.
