The four founding departments of Rice ( Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics ) are still a part of the Wiess School. of Rice has historically been known for its strength in the sciences. Its Department of Space Science was established in 1963. The land on which the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center was built was donated by Rice University. Following this, President John F. Kennedy made a speech at Rice Stadium calling on the United States of America to develop its space program further.
