November 15-19
As the annual International Education Week draws to a close, Rice Athletics is recognizing its student-athletes who continue to enrich the diverse culture of our university while leading the Owls' competitive efforts.
The Office of International Students and Scholars (OISS) is coordinating some IEW activities at Rice to increase awareness of the benefits of international education, as well as celebrating the internationally diverse and culturally rich Rice campus. Please see a list of the events and participating departments/offices at https://oiss.rice.edu/iew.
"International Education Week is an opportunity to celebrate the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. This joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education is part of our efforts to promote programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences."

International Education Week (IEW) is typically held during the third week in November. Rice University has participated for many years in IEW as a way to celebrate our international students and scholars who come from all around the globe, and many other globalization initiatives across the university, helping to make Rice an internationally diverse and culturally rich campus. As Rice's IEW celebrations continue to evolve and cross-campus participation continues to increase, OISS strongly encourages departments across campus to find ways to commemorate internationalization efforts in their areas.
