The RICE Bowl is designed to unite a diverse pool of graduate students from multiple academic disciplines to address complex rural health issues. The competition provides an experiential learning opportunity for students to work in interdisciplinary teams to effectively address a realistic case scenario. This event encourages students to think comprehensively and beyond their own disciplines. As a result, students are better prepared to work in interdisciplinary teams to provide the highest quality of care to individuals and populations.
