The Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Management (NREM) at the University of Hawaii, Manoa (UH-Manoa) operates under the College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources (CTAHR), one of the university's founding colleges. Our mission centers on equipping students to become skilled natural resources professionals, with key focuses on:
grasping the biophysical dimensions of natural resources within tropical island ecosystems
employing cutting-edge information, tools, and models for effective resource stewardship
assessing the true economic worth of these resources and analyzing management alternatives
collaborating with communities to develop actionable solutions for resource challenges.
Our diverse faculty bring expertise across natural and social sciences. The program blends hands-on training with contemporary theories, upholding our land-grant tradition of service to both stakeholders and ecosystems. While students select either natural or social science tracks, coursework spans both domains. All NREM undergraduates pursue tailored internships, gaining practical experience, professional connections, and career direction. The culminating NREM 494 capstone challenges student teams to integrate multidisciplinary knowledge, proposing viable solutions to actual resource dilemmas.
We invite you to explore these advising pages and our full website to discover NREM's opportunities and how you might enrich our academic community. Prospective students seeking guidance should contact the department to schedule an advising session.

Our undergraduate program targets five core learning outcomes:
Appreciating scientific inquiry in NREM contexts
Meeting professional standards for entry-level resource management roles
