Depending upon background/skills, we usually offer students opportunities to participate in a wide range of studies covering theoretical, numerical and/or experimental research. Learn about our current projects here.

Financial support may be available in the form of graduate assistantships, which include tuition waivers and a subsidized fringe benefit package. You can check if research assistantship in your area of interest is available here. The university of Hawaii also sometimes have scholarships available.

NOTE: Visit the UH Graduate Division web site for additional information.

Most PhD students in the Department are supported by graduate assistantships throughout their study, while MS students engaged in the Plan A thesis option usually receive support after the first year of coursework. Applications for financial support should be submitted to the Department by March 1 for the Fall semester and September 1 for the Spring semester. You may download an assistantship application form here.
