UH Manoa Description
Aloha and welcome to UH Manoa, the largest campus in the University of Hawaii System. We are located on the island of O?ahu, in Honolulu's lush Manoa valley.As a student at UH Manoa you can choose from 87 bachelor's, 87 master's, and 51 doctoral programs. We also encourage you to get involved outside the classroom and participate in some of the 200 student organizations and enhanced learning opportunities available on campus.
We, the faculty at the University of Hawai'i at Manoa, invite students to participate in an undergraduate education dedicated to academic excellence and intended to help them make a difference in the world. We embrace the notion that higher education offers a special opportunity for students to experience the interconnectedness of human knowledge across disciplines. Because UH-Manoa is the premier research institution in the state of Hawai'i, its students interact with professors in the forefront of their disciplines and are thereby engaged in the study of how knowledge itself is produced and disseminated. Furthermore, UH-Manoa has unique resources in the depth of its Hawaiian assets and in the breadth of its multiculturalism. Consequently, the UH-Manoa General Education curriculum gives students global foundations with a special focus on the native cultures in Hawai'i and the Pacific.
The General Education requirements are designed to help students develop the skills and ways of thinking they need for study in their chosen majors and for lifelong learning. Graduates from UH-Manoa should know the cultural and artistic heritages of human history; further, they should understand the principles that underlie the natural and social worlds.
