At Rice, we take knowledge seriously. Of course, that doesn’t mean we don’t have fun. We do. But in the deepest sense, we understand that only those things taken seriously are really fun. If you like this idea, you will like Rice. When you study here, you’ll get more than just a world-class education: The university offers tremendous learning experiences in the classroom and out — across campus, in the city and throughout the world. With its Ivy League reputation and more than 3,000 undergraduates, Rice offers the best of both worlds: an exceptional educational experience offered by professors who know your name.
Increasingly, Rice undergrads are getting the opportunity to work side-by-side with professors and graduate students in laboratories across campus. A new student-produced magazine called Catalyst: Rice Undergraduate Science Review is dedicated to highlighting this undergraduate research experience.
