发帖数: 507 | 1 I saw some many funny people around this board. I would like to post some
facts to make some comparisons and try to clear up some shits here.
(I) Recently, Carnegie foundation upgrade UH to the fourth tier-one
universities in Texas (UT-Austin, A&M, Rice and UH now).

(II) UH and Rice both do NOT have a medical school. So, it is kind of fair
to compare.
(1) Faculty size (only count full-time tenure and tenure-track):
Rice: 523 (Fall 2009)
http://www.professor.rice.edu/professor/Appointments_and_Positi
UH: 933
http://www.uh.edu/about/uh-glance/facts-figures/index.php
Note: UH covers a lot more majors than Rice. Many UH majors are not offered
at Rice (such as school of law, school of hotel management, school of social
work, school of education, etc. etc.). I don't have time to count exact
head counts in sci & engineering fields at both Rice and UH. But I can
imagine UH might have slightly more full-time head counts.
(2) current active NSF awards http://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/:
Rice: 232
UH: 169
(3) current active NIH awards http://projectreporter.nih.gov/reporter.cfm
Rice: 71 awards
UH: 93 awards
(4) total annual research awards/expenditure
Note: NSF and NIH awards can be publicly searched, but other agencies (such
as DoD and DOE) do not have such public resources. So, let's look at "the
total annual research expenditure". I will try to use the latest data
publicly available on the web.
Rice (FY 2009): slightly less than $90 millions. (cannot find its FY2010
data online)
refer to Page #14 at http://research.rice.edu/forms/annualReports/FY09AnnualReport.pdf
UH (FY 2010): about $99 millions (cannot find its FY2009 data)
Refer to the top place at http://uh.edu/president/communications/university-community/fall-address-highlights/
根据US NEWS ranking， Rice排在前20, 而UH在100之后，所以，我就纳闷， 是UH严重
被under-evaluated,还是我们赫赫有名的大米大学有那么点“名不副实”呢？ 最后，
如果UH研究生入学时候的平均基础和水平不如Rice(还必须承认还是有些事实成分在里
头），那是不是更加不容易（对于faculty而言）取得上述的东西？ |

很弱，lol。
rice本科非常强，你看的那个ranking是本科的，best college
另外Rice规模很小，学生数量少多了。就好像中国的GDP现在号称和日本差不多了，但
是人口呢？ |

然后很“幽怨”的到这里来酸葡萄？！
公平来说
Rice的本科是甩出UH几条街的
研究生院的话要看专业
Rice大部分研究偏理论
UH有的专业很实用，工业界比较喜欢，所以就业市场不错 |
