LILIE RICE EXPERIMENT FUND FOR ALL CURRENT STUDENTS
The Rice Experiment Fund is a program designed to enable you to get straight to testing the assumptions in your student venture. Open to any current Rice Student, RXF pairs equity-free funding with guided mentoring sessions to help you maximize the impact of your experiment.
Applications for the Lilie Rice Experiment Fund are currently closed, but they will reopen in the fall semester. When the application process opens, any current Rice University undergraduate or graduate student can apply for up to $500 per semester in equity-free funding to develop and implement an exceptional idea, innovation, discovery, or entrepreneurial undertaking in the course of their studies.
With up to $4,000 of equity-free funding available to a student over the lifetime of the program, this is a unique opportunity to get out there, test your assumptions, and iterate quickly!
In addition to financial support, the winners of this award will have the support of faculty, mentors, and programs of the broader university and the Liu Idea Lab for Innovation and Entrepreneurship.
