My summer internship was in an industry and function I had no prior experience so if the company had not come to campus for a Rice MBA, it is unlikely that I would have gotten it.

The Tech Trek to Austin is my favorite moment of my Rice experience so far — seeing offices where we could work was great, and meeting alumni was really helpful for me as someone trying to break into the industry.

My favorite moment so far was getting the phone call that I had received an internship. So much networking and preparation went into the landing the job that I felt very proud of myself. The best part was that it was not just me who got to celebrate. My classmates who had been there at every step of the way and the CDO helping me with pretty much everything got to celebrate too.
