founding over half a century ago, the department has been a world leader in
interdisciplinary oceanographic research and education, and we are excited to
grow our dynamic, vibrant community with new colleagues to continue this
legacy. UHM is an internationally recognized R1 university that draws students
from many places including Hawaiʻi, the Pacific Islands, and Asia. Our campus
welcomes all students but given our responsibilities to the community in which
we operate, as part of our strategic mission, we strive to become a Native
Hawaiian Place of Learning, a place that is committed to integrating Native
