Research At UH Hilo
The University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo supports scholarly research activities by faculty, students and staff. The university has steadily increased its extramural grant activity, while also establishing an intramural grant program to foster faculty and staff development. Additionally, the Research Corporation of the University of Hawaiʻi or RCUH helps to administrate the research activities across the University of Hawaiʻi system.
The research activities at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo are coordinated by a Research Office, led by the Interim Vice Chancellor for Research, Dr. Daniel E. Brown. A Research Council whose members are appointed by the Vice Chancellor for Research for three year terms, is the chief recommending body for the Vice Chancellor. The Council administers the intramural grant program, proposes policies and procedures for extramural grant activities by the campus, and advises the Vice Chancellor on matters concerned with research and grant activity. The UH Hilo Research Council is chaired by Dr. Ken Hon. Limited general use research space is available both on and off campus. Faculty must apply for use of the space on an annual, competitive basis.

Famous quotes containing the word research:
“The working woman may be quick to see any problems with children as her fault because she isn’t as available to them. However, the fact that she is employed is rarely central to the conflict. And overall, studies show, being employed doesn’t have negative effects on children; carefully done research consistently makes this clear.”
—Grace Baruch (20th century)
