The Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program provides approximately $500,000 to undergraduate students at UH Mānoa working with world-renowned faculty mentors on projects and professional presentations.
Undergraduate students got hands-on experience in community engagement at Lyon Arboretum as part of UH Mānoa’s Summer Undergraduate Research Experience.
The project encourages and finances non-college-bound high school students and adults to attend, and successfully complete, their first year of college.
The gift supports the Native Hawaiian Science and Engineering Mentorship Program’s Freshman Bridge and the 2019 Engineering Student Ambassadors Program.
The mentorship program, in its fourth year, aims to increase the digital literacy level of high school students in a college setting that resides in natural sciences and computer programming.
