Pre-MBA Opportunities
Each summer there are many Pre-MBA fellowships, events, and conferences that are available with companies who are interested in Rice MBA students.
Some of these opportunities are geared towards diversity candidates (women, underrepresented minorities, etc.), but not all. You may be responsible for travel expenses, please check the individual websites for more information.
**Companies change their Pre-MBA offerings from year to year. In addition to reviewing these opportunities, please take the time to search for opportunities on your own. Additionally, some Pre-MBA Opportunities may charge for attendance. You are not required to attend any of those listed below, they are simply options.**
The Career Development Office is happy to share these Pre-MBA Opportunities with our prospective students:
