Welcome to CampusGroups!

Welcome to CampusGroups, the student life platform that you will use during your tenure as a Rice Business student. CampusGroups is a web-based student resources and activities management platform. It is where the Student Program Office, the JGSB Registrar Department, the Career Development Office, and Student Clubs will communicate with you and post resources for your use. It includes a master calendar of school-wide, program specific, and club specific programming and events, event registration, payment links for events and merchandise, as well as electronic tickets for events that you are registered for. While you might not have to use CampusGroups daily, you will definitely want to familiarize yourself with the system and you should be logging on to CampusGroups weekly.

 

Check out the walk through video below that shows the various resources on CampusGroups that you will use more frequently. CampusGroups also has an app that you can download and have CampusGroups on the go. You can find the CampusGroups app in the Apple Store and Google Play by searching for "Rice Business".

Did you know...

... President John F. Kennedy gave his famous "We choose to go to the moon" speech at Rice Stadium.

On September 12, 1962, JFK gave his famous speech on the Rice campus, promising that the United States will not only go into space, but would put a man on the moon before the end of the decade. His promise would be fulfilled in 1969 with the successful Apollo 11 mission.
