Jones Graduate School of Management
The Jesse H. Jones Graduate School of Management is one of the world's leading business schools. It is one of seven academic units of Rice University. Named in honor of the late Jesse Holman Jones, a prominent Houston business and civic leader, the school received its initial funding in 1974 through a major gift from the Houston Endowment Inc., a philanthropic foundation established by Jones and his wife, Mary Gibbs Jones.
The school offers the Rice MBA, MBA for Executives, MBA for Professionals degrees as well as two joint degrees programs: the MBA/ME with the George R. Brown School of Engineering and the MBA/MD with Baylor College of Medicine
Executive Education offers a full schedule of non-credit executive education and customized courses for business and industry.
The Rice MBA and MBA for Executives programs were ranked the best in Texas and the Southwest by the Financial Times in 2004, 2005, and 2007. The 2007 survey also ranked the Jones School among the top ten business schools in the world for finance and among the top 30 U.S. business schools. In salary averages three years after graduation, Rice MBA graduates ranked 19th nationally.
The Economist's 2005 "Which MBA?" ranking places Rice in the top ten business schools in the world for "jobs found through the career services office." Rice also leads all Texas business schools for increase in salary and highest postgraduate salary. The Economist ranking is the latest ranking to recognize the career success of our graduates and the efficacy of the school's Career Planning Center staff.
