The University of Hawaii at Hilo offers Summer courses in Physics and Astronomy. Courses are good for high school students getting a jump on college courses or current students wishing to close that academic credit gap. Summer courses are often different from our standard academic offerings, with a more hands-on approach to learning.


We in the Department of Physics & Astronomy at UH Hilo affirm our professional organizations’ statements on diversity: APS, AIP (of which AAS is a member), and SPS. We strive to be a supportive, affirming, and inclusive ʻohana so that we all may grow and thrive.
