About Us
The Joe C. Thompson Conference Center (TCC) is named for the late Joe C. Thompson of Dallas, an alumnus of the University who, at the time of his death in 1961, was Chairman of the Southland Corporation and a member of the University of Texas System Board of Regents. The center has served as an academic link between the University and the community since 1970. As the focal point of the University of Texas at Austin’s continuing education efforts, the Center’s mission is to provide excellent conference facilities, services, and programs for people to continue their educational development and personal enrichment.
TCC has a 1,000 person instructional capacity. As a full-service, non-residential conference center, the center serves a variety of clients and hosts a wide assortment of educational programs and events. Government entities use the center for workshops for their employees as well as for meetings with the general public. External use, with University co-sponsorship, includes not-for-profit educational events planned by corporations, non-profit agencies, and business associations.
Located in the heart of Austin, the Thompson Conference Center provides conference facilities, services, and programs for educational and personal enrichment purposes.
