The objective of Hawai'i International University is to provide each and every person with the knowledge and resources that they need to enhance their lives, careers, families, communities and their nation. Hawai'i International University is committed to focusing on the needs of every individual. Many people are unable to attend traditional universities or colleges because of jobs and family commitments. We believe that knowledge does not have to be learned in a traditional classroom. Knowledge is what you gain when you have the desire and drive to learn incorporated with self-study and discipline. We believe that education should be offered to everyone. We view learning as a lifelong experience, not confined to classrooms and laboratories.

In this age and time, technological advances are progressing because of human lifestyle changes and needs. The Internet, which helps link people together from around the world, is a technological advance that we use to communicate with our many students around the world. All our students are given the freedom to study and work on their degree at their own pace while communicating with us via the Internet. Our innovative independent study programs allow learners to achieve their educational objectives rapidly at their convenience, confident that the information they are mastering is up to date and relevant to the realities of the world today.
