Citizen University

League City launched Citizens University in 2015. The mission of the League City Citizens University is to familiarize the residents and business owners of League City with the purpose, process and structure of the city’s government and equip citizens to become active participants in municipal operations.

Citizens University is held over a 10-week period every Thursday from 6 to 8 p.m.

Spring 2023 Session: February 23- April 27

Fall 2023 Session: September 7-November 9

Each session will include an interactive presentation from City staff on various City services and issues, providing an understanding of how citizens play a crucial role in leading League City into the future. The course also includes tours of City facilities. Students are required to complete a minimum of two volunteer hours at a City event or activity.

Participants are expected to attend all classes and are allowed to miss no more than one class. If you anticipate missing more than one class in a session, it is recommended that you choose a different session that will accommodate your schedule. Classes are offered every spring and fall.
