AAlong TRANSFORMATIVE LEARNING EXPERIENCE with the rigorous curriculum, I learned:
Teamwork. Appreciate different viewpoints and interact with different personalities for the betterment of the project.
Communication skills. Use clear and concise manner in both verbal and written communication.
Time Management. In real life, just like in school, there is always too much to do and too little time to do it. Rice’s
curriculum replicates this well, and it gave me a chance to learn how to make the most efficient use of my time.
Network. Rice emphasizes networking and gives students the tools they can use to increase their network. In my professional career I have continued to network and have made some incredible friends and professional contacts that have proven useful in a variety of ways.
