I'm looking into studying in a unique location like Hawaii. Does anyone know of good universities in Hawaii that offer a variety of programs?
There are several universities in Hawaii that offer a range of programs, each with their own distinct attributes.
1. The University of Hawaii at Manoa, which is the flagship institution of the University of Hawaii system. It is located on the island of Oahu and offers a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programs, from arts and sciences to professional degrees.
2. The University of Hawaii at Hilo, located on the island of Hawaii (or Big Island) offers a smaller collegiate experience with a variety of majors and minors, focusing especially on Marine Science and Astronomy due to its unique geographic location.
3. Hawaii Pacific University (HPU) is a private, non-profit university located in Honolulu and Kaneohe. It offers a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programs, including business, nursing, and marine biology. Their oceanic and island location allows for more hands-on study in programs like Marine Science.
4. Chaminade University of Honolulu is a small, private, Catholic university that offers a range of programs including Education, Forensic Sciences, and Nursing.
