»»»»»»»»Overview

At the University of Hawai‘i Community Colleges, we offer you a vast range of courses and programs that teach you more about the Hawaiian language, Hawai‘i geography, science, culture and arts.

Our courses are designed as stepping-stones toward achieving your ultimate academic and career goals. Many of our students create their own educational and career pathway by combining several disciplines to address current issues facing Hawai‘i and the world. Students are studying ethnobotany, the natural environment, health and nutrition to find better ways of bridging the health and economic gap in Hawai‘i. Others are studying the sustainability of our environment to help protect the ‘aina.
