Where Exploration & Community Flourish
At the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo, life moves to the rhythm of flowing lava, cascading waterfalls, and the gentle murmur of the Pacific. The setting sparks curiosity, fosters cultural connection, and transforms perspectives. With research in marine science and conservation biology, advancement of the Hawaiian language, and the state’s only pharmacy school, every field of study at UH Hilo is infused with the spirit of aloha and a commitment to our island home.
