FRONTIERS OF THE FUTURE

 

The Wiess School of Natural Sciences is a forward-looking and innovative organization entering a time of exciting discovery at the frontiers of scientific knowledge. Frontiers have captured human imagination throughout our recorded history. Although few global frontiers remain, the vast arena of modern science and technology is open for human exploration. New fields of learning as profound as those made by early pioneers are emerging to test our curiosity, creativity, and commitments. The School of Natural Sciences at Rice University presents a territory where these exciting and transforming explorations are moving forward.   Kathleen Matthews   Dean, Wiess School of Natural Sciences
