Our Inaugural Report on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
We invite you to read through Rice Business's first Diversity, Equity and Inclusion annual report. The office for DEI, along with Dean Rodriguez, designed the report to offer everyone time to pause and reflect on our progress toward making Rice Business more diverse, equitable and inclusive. Learn about the strides the school has made towards becoming a place where all people -- no matter their identity -- feel wholly accepted.
Imagine studying at one of the most intimate business programs in the world with access to all the amenities of a university campus, in the country’s fourth largest city.
My favorite thing has been the range of classes that I have taken even thus far. From Marketing to Data Analytics, I truly feel that I am getting the full business experience and have learned so much.
