Rice Business Board Fellows

Founded by Rice MBA students and staff in 2008, Rice Business Board Fellows is a year-long experiential learning program that that matches talented, energetic, and committed Rice MBA students as fellows on local nonprofit boards to serve as non-voting board members. Both students and organizations benefit from the Board Fellows program: Organizations gain access to the ideas and energy of future business leaders with the possibility of cultivating potential new board members. MBA candidates learn valuable leadership skills from community leaders and gain experience in the nonprofit sector from “real life” non-profit management and governance.
