Academics and Education

Through the Geology and Geophysics, Meteorology, Ocean and Resources Engineering, and Oceanography departments we offer formal and informal courses of study at the graduate and undergraduate levels, all enhanced by outstanding research programs and resources.

We have special science programs for Hawai‘i’s elementary and high school students and their teachers. Special events for the general public also showcase the educational opportunities and scientific research conducted at SOEST.
