The BFA degree in art is designed for those students who desire a focused preparation in the visual arts or who intend to pursue an advanced degree or career in art. Students are encouraged to cross media boundaries, and qualified students may opt to construct an individualized inter-media plan of study with faculty guidance and approval.
Students seeking admission to candidacy for the BFA must be a BA Art major and pass a portfolio review, which can take place only after the following requirements have been met. All studio areas will hold an annual BFA Portfolio Review in late spring, at least one week prior to registration.
Students interested in pursuing a teaching career in elementary and secondary art education should seek advisement from the College of Education. The MA in art history emphasizes the arts of Asia and the Pacific. An undergraduate major in art history is desirable, but not necessary. In support of the application for admission, all applicants are required to send three original letters of recommendation, a sample of written work preferably an art history seminar or term paper , and General Test scores from the GRE directly to the art department prior to the application deadline.

The non-thesis program is for students wishing to teach in community colleges or at the high school level. The examination is usually given during the first semester of residence. A student who fails the general examination may repeat it once upon approval by the graduate program. However, students failing the general examination a second time are dropped from the program. Students who are denied advancement to candidacy are dropped from the program and lose their status as classified graduate students.
A final examination in addition to the thesis defense may be required by individual graduate programs. It should be held prior to the specified deadline before the end of the term during which the degree is conferred.
It is conducted by the thesis committee and is open to all graduate faculty members. As an alternative, the committee chair may have the candidate present results of the thesis at a departmental graduate seminar, but all members of the thesis committee must be present. Students failing the final examination may repeat it only once upon petition approved by the graduate program. Students who fail the final examination a second time are dropped from the program and lose their status as classified graduate students.
If the graduate program does not require a final examination, the chair of the graduate faculty concerned reports the completion of all degree requirements on Student Progress Form III. A minimum of 30 credit hours is required. A minimum of 18 credit hours must be earned in courses numbered excluding Thesis including at least one graduate seminar in the major program or in a related program.
This degree plan typically includes a final project, practicum, or similar culminating experience. When the student is advanced to candidacy, the chair of the graduate program appoints a program advisor or a program committee made up of members of the graduate faculty.
All students within a particular graduate program must take the examination if it is required at all. This examination has several possible forms. It may be a seminar appearance, a written comprehensive examination, an oral examination, some equivalent, or a combination of these.
If a final examination is required by the graduate program, it must be given prior to the established deadline before the end of the term during which the degree is conferred. Students failing the final examination may be permitted to repeat it only once upon approval by the graduate program. Students failing the examination a second time are dropped from the program and lose their status as classified graduate students. A minimum of 30 credits is required. Of the 30 minimum credits, at least 18 credits is required to be courses numbered or above excluding and The student must demonstrate competence by examination and must meet the minimum residence requirement two semesters of full-time work.

Specifications for the number of written examinations required, what they cover, and the amount of time required for each two or more hours for written examinations and one or more for the oral portion are set forth in the statement of requirements in each graduate program.
The oral portion of the final examination follows the written portions and must be held prior to the specified deadline before the end of the term during which the degree is conferred. It may be scheduled on any working day during normal working hours. Arrangements for the final examination must be made at least three weeks prior to the date of examination for fall and spring semesters, and four weeks prior to the date of the examination for the summer.
Candidates failing the final examination may be allowed to repeat it upon approval by the graduate faculty concerned. Students failing the final examination a second time are dropped from the program and lose their status as classified graduate students. Faculty or staff members at rank 3 and above may not be awarded a doctoral degree by UH Manoa in the graduate program administered by the department in which they are employed. The doctor of philosophy PhD degree is awarded only for the most distinguished scholarly achievement.
The additional, special requirements in any given graduate program prepare the candidate for the examinations and successful completion of the dissertation. Candidates are accepted only in graduate programs in which the teaching staff, library, laboratory equipment, and cooperative relationships with other research institutions make it possible to offer training.
The degree of Doctor of Education EdD is awarded for distinguished academic preparation for professional practice in the field of education.
The degree of Doctor of Nursing Practice DNP is awarded for distinguished academic preparation for professional practice in the field of nursing. Candidates must progress through course work and a series of capstone experience culminating in a final project. The student must produce a tangible and deliverable academic product that is derived from practice immersion experience and is reviewed and evaluated by the faculty.
Doctoral students are expected to complete all requirements within seven years after admission into the doctoral program. There is no minimum number of required course credit hours set for doctoral degrees.
The possibilities are endless. And we are here to help you navigate the way to your future. Workplace disasters have wreaked havoc on countless American workers and their families. They have resulted in widespread death and disability, as well as the loss of property and savings.
These tragic events have also inspired safety reforms that reshaped labor conditions in ways that partially compensated for death, suffering, and social dislocation. Kraft encourages readers to think about such disastrous events in new ways. The Department of History is deeply saddened by the passing of our dear friend
