Photography Contest & Exhibition
The Rice Study Abroad Photo Contest is organized around students' learning outcomes for study abroad. The exhibit aims to showcase photos that demonstrate an understanding of the country and integration into its culture beyond that which a casual traveler attains. This is your chance to visually share your study abroad journey with the Rice community.
Categories
