About the Department and School of Engineering
Rice University is a private university with a strong reputation for academic and research excellence. Rice attracts outstanding undergraduate and graduate students from across the nation and around the world. Rice provides a stimulating environment for research, teaching, and joint projects with industry. The department and the university have access to superb computational research facilities, both on-campus and in our networked off-campus data center. The university is located across the street from the Texas Medical Center, one of the premiere centers for medical research in the United States. Houston's energy, medical, aerospace, and technology communities together make the city a hub for computational innovations across real-time, embedded and high-performance systems, with an increasing demand for data analytics across this spectrum. Houston is in the midst of technological transformation with the development of a high-tech district, the ION (https://ionhouston.com), which will provide opportunities for collaborations with some of the world's top energy companies that are already transformed by data science. As the fourth-largest city in the USA, Houston is a cosmopolitan destination with a vibrant economy and world-class performing arts, museums, sports, and dining venues that are all located in close proximity to Rice. We seek greater representation of women, scholars of color, people with disabilities, veterans, and others who have historically been underrepresented in Computer Science; to attract international students from a wider range of countries and backgrounds; to accelerate progress in building a faculty and staff who are diverse in background and thought; and we support an inclusive environment that fosters interaction and understanding within our diverse community.
