Time to Partio

The “partio,” or party on the patio, is a venerated Rice Business tradition. Whether it’s an international partio to celebrate the different cultures in our community or a family partio where you can introduce your littles and loved ones to your Rice Business family, partios are our favorite way to unwind and get to know each other better.

Diversity Matters

We call ourselves family, but we’re all different. Different opinions. Different career goals. Different cultures and backgrounds. We’re one of the most diverse communities of graduate business students in the U.S. and that’s intentional because diversity is at the heart of our ethos and collaborations. Diversity is more than numbers at Rice Business. It’s friendship that spans difference. It’s what makes us feel at home.

Best of Both Worlds

We offer the best of both worlds at Rice Business: A small, tight-knit student body contained within a single building that offers access to the facilities and grounds of the 300-acre Rice University campus. Rice Business students are encouraged to visit and use the university’s library, student center, chapel, rec center, and coffee shops, as well as the Lilie Lab and the Turrell Skyspace.

My favorite part of the MBA experience is becoming a part of Rice Business Student Association. I love to make influential change in whatever endeavor I am doing and RBSA allows me to do just that.

Sitting on the benches on Partio Thursday evenings. Chatting with people  teammates, professors, mentors. Endless conversations on invaluable experiences. Unforgettable moments of tears and laughter... It’s all been impactful to my career and my life.

My favorite thing? Partios are a given, so I would have to go with the Zoom chats. They are hilarious and really highlight the different personalities.
