The Longhorn Energy Club (LEC) is the social hub for all things energy at the University of Texas at Austin. Open to undergraduate and graduate students from all university programs, our organization is focused on fostering connections between students and professionals for career development, academic collaborations, and interdisciplinary learning. LEC believes that the multifaceted nature of our global energy challenges demands cooperation across disciplines and technologies.
Based in the capital of Texas, LEC operates in close partnership with major stakeholders at the university, in government, and in industry. Our events highlight the leading role of Texas in advancing today’s energy systems and aim to prepare our members with well rounded perspectives on the energy sector, serving as a pipeline for students to become knowledgeable of both energy technology and policy.
