Creative Ventures Funds

Rice University Internal Funding Opportunities

Rice is committed to supporting and amplifying faculty’s creative scholarship and research, and the Creative Ventures Funds are one set of opportunities available to the Rice faculty for this purpose.

As different disciplines require different types and levels of support, Rice has developed the Creative Ventures Funds to meet the multiple needs of our faculty community. Each year, Rice University allocates over $1 million directly to support our faculty in new and creative work.
