The whole package

Houston Business Journal has twice named Rice University one of Houston’s best places to work. We think they’re onto something — and so do our faculty and staff, who enjoy Rice’s competitive pay and benefits, including a liberal vacation policy, plus countless opportunities for personal and professional growth. Add to that a vibrant sense of community; the beautiful, tree-rich, 285-acre campus; highly skilled and talented colleagues who are passionate about their work; and Rice’s strong commitment to bettering the world through first-class education, environmental sensitivity and path-breaking research, and you might start to think that Houston’s premier business journal is onto something, too.
