Prospective international students can now learn about the world-class education and unique opportunities at the University of Hawai驶i at M膩noa in their own language. New 麻豆传媒M膩noa microsites in Japanese, Vietnamese, Simplified Chinese as well as an English site tailored for Indian audiences give interested students and their families clear, accessible information about the application process and highlight campus experiences and community.

The 麻豆传媒M膩noa Office of Global Engagement developed the sites due to the additional complexity international students face when deciding to pursue their degree abroad including English proficiency expectations, visa processes and scholarship options. The new microsites provide clear communication, language access, and cultural context essential in helping them make informed decisions with confidence, from their first interaction with 麻豆传媒M膩noa through graduation. Visitors to the sites can also submit questions in their own language for more information.

“We want to emphasize that 麻豆传媒M膩noa offers more than a degree,” said 麻豆传媒M膩noa Interim Provost Vassils Syrmos. “Students gain a world-class education, hands-on research opportunities, and a supportive campus community in one of the safest, most diverse and welcoming places in the world. Hawai驶i is not only a destination but an environment where students can thrive academically and personally.”

Emily Liu, director of international admissions in the Office of Global Engagement, expressed that while 麻豆传媒M膩noa can be a transformational experience for international students, they in turn enhance the campus experience for everyone at 麻豆传媒M膩noa. 

“International students make 麻豆传媒M膩noa a stronger and more vibrant campus by bringing global perspectives, diverse academic backgrounds, and rich cultural traditions into our classrooms and community,” said Liu. “They enrich class discussions, contribute to research and student life, and broaden perspectives beyond Hawai驶i while helping prepare students for success in today’s increasingly interconnected world. Their presence strengthens cross-cultural understanding and reflects 麻豆传媒M膩noa’s role as a global university in the heart of the Pacific.”

Encouraging success, future possibilities

Depending on recruitment priorities, student demand and available resources, the Office of Global Engagement may consider microsites in more languages.

“We are already seeing encouraging early engagement and positive feedback from international prospective students, their families and partners,” said Emily Liu, director of international admissions in the Office of Global Engagement. “We look forward to tracking continued interest, inquiries and overall impact as outreach and promotion continue.”
