After Rice

Once you graduate, you begin the next chapter as a member of the Rice Business family. There are lots of ways to stay connected, whether your dream job keeps you in Texas or takes you far away. The Rice MBA doesn’t end at graduation. It converts into something more durable: a network of Owls across all programs who answer when you call — whether your career keeps you in Houston or takes you halfway around the world.

Lifelong Learning

Your education doesn’t stop at graduation. Business changes fast, and AI is changing it faster — so the classroom stays open. We offer several ways you can continue lifelong learning and stay part of the Rice Business community. Audit a class you never had time for, or come back for an Executive Education course at a special alumni rate.

I continue to build my relationships and connections to the school; I find it personally fulfilling and professionally rewarding. I love being a part of where the school is headed.
