Host a Conference or Research Meeting

At the Rice Global Paris Center, we support dynamic programs designed to advance Rice University's strategic objectives through global engagement. By bringing together leading scholars, researchers, and professionals, we aim to enhance research excellence and build impactful international networks.
We welcome faulty looking to host research conferences that foster collaboration, international workshops that drive innovation, and events that strengthen partnerships across Europe. Join us in Paris to contribute to groundbreaking discussions and collaborative efforts that support the university's mission and global reach.

 

Choose the format that fits your course and schedule—there are two ways to teach in Paris:

 

Summer Session (3 weeks)
A focused, three-week course designed for immersive, short-format courses that make the most of Paris as a living classroom.
Fall Semester (full term)
A full-semester residency that supports sustained teaching, deeper partnerships, and longer-running projects in Paris.

 

Faculty may apply for one or both options.
