Rice University is a comprehensive research university dedicated to producing the next generation of leaders, creating bold research solutions and advancing tomorrow’s thinking. Our greatest asset is our people and the ideas they bring to the table to solve some of the world’s most pressing problems.

Building Rice's Future

Learn more about the planning process

Planning for Rice University’s future is an important endeavor that we officially launched in January and will undergo with intensity over the next 12 months. Once the process is complete, we will have a plan that will articulate Rice’s vision for the next 10 years. The plan will define how the university will focus its resources to realize Rice’s vision, outline metrics that will allow Rice to measure progress against our strategic goals, and propose strategies to achieve those goals. Implementation of the plan will follow. To learn more about the planning process, visit buildingricesfuture.rice.edu.
