RICE Repository - for past RICE presentations and programs

RICE (Research, Internships, and Creative Endeavors) is a cross-disciplinary celebration of high-quality, independent student research, internships, and creative endeavors that provides students with an opportunity to learn what it is like to be part of an academic conference. The 2025 RICE Symposium will be part of a week-long celebration of research that features a different event each day.
