Explore Abundant Opportunities at Rice Business for Networking and Hands-On Experience
We all know an MBA is about more than just classes and grades. This is a chance to really develop yourself as a leader — to find new talents and strengths you never knew you had. At Rice Business, we shape students into leaders who have the skills companies need: strategic thinking, creativity, leadership, communication and more. Our programs help you learn and apply those skills both inside and outside the classroom, and our international programming will help you gain a global perspective.
