Here is the portion of my code that is rather bothersome:

\begin{center}

    \begin{matrix}
      E_1  \\
      E_2 
    \end{matrix}

    \begin{bmatrix} 
      1 & h & 2 \\
     -5 & 15 & -12 
    \end{bmatrix}

\end{center}

And the result is

enter image description here

How do I go about getting the E_1 E_2 column to the left of the bmatrix?

If you're interested in providing row-labels for the matrix, consider reviewing Where is the \matrix command? – Werner Jan 25 '14 at 17:24

You must have got errors from that, matrix is a math command, replace center by \[ \] and delete the blank line – David Carlisle Jan 25 '14 at 17:24
