SOEST is the research powerhouse of the University, generating fully one third of the total extramural funding received at UH Manoa. The School is operational 24/7/365, with programs and people across all the Hawaiian Islands and around the globe.We offer more than a dozen distinct undergraduate and graduate degrees. With two large research and several coastal vessels, two submersibles, a deep-ocean cabled observatory, a satellite fabrication facility, a private island devoted to marine biology research, and dozens of other specialized laboratories, students within SOEST are trained on state-ofthe-art facilities and mentored to find their passion by leading researchers and educators as much in the field and lab as in the classroom.
