Current Rice Students
Rice Summer Sessions are a great way for you to get ahead or on track with your degree program. Join a summer session course and take advantage of even smaller classes that offer more intimate and hands-on learning experiences while keeping you connected with the Rice community.
We encourage you to use Rice Summer Sessions to stay on track with your degree program or explore new learning opportunities. Please be sure to meet with an academic adviser to discuss your degree plan.
