*“The [[Venture Challenge]] is a key component of the 'entrepreneurship pipeline' we are building for undergraduates. Students test their ideas at the [[November Elevator Pitch Competition]] and receive honest feedback from judges on their commercial potential. With expert mentoring from the Rice Alliance, they refine their ideas into full business plans for the RUVCRice University Venture Challenge,” said Mark Embree, director of [[Rice Center for Engineering Leadership|RCEL]] and professor of computational and applied mathematics. *The OEDK curriculum offers an educational environment where students can learn business planning and entrepreneurship as well as communication skills, through interdisciplinary design projects and interaction with industry professionals.
