Congratulations Graduates

Congratulations to our 364 new graduates from 24 states and 33 countries.
The mission of BYU–Hawaii is to prepare students of Oceania and the Asian Rim to be lifelong disciples of Jesus Christ and leaders in their families, communities, chosen fields, and in building the kingdom of God.

Legacy, Leadership, and Purpose

Aspiring student entrepreneurs took center stage at the 2025 Ed & Shauna Smith Empower Your Dreams (EYD) Competition, held April 2–4 at Brigham Young University–Hawaii. Designed to help students develop real-world solutions to real-world problems, EYD gave participants the tools, mentorship, and experience to turn their ideas into action—and possibly into thriving businesses.

The Art of Finding Balance

Graduation speaker, Rosalind Pedron, says her success is rooted in the balance she found between academics, faith, family, community and motherhood.

The Power of Perseverance: The 2025 Undergraduate Research Conference

Students across Brigham Young University–Hawaiʻi gathered on Thursday, April 3, for the 2025 Undergraduate Research Conference (URC), an annual campus-wide event that spotlights student scholarship in research, writing, music, creative projects, and academic poster presentations. This year’s theme, “Perseverance is Power,” was inspired by Japanese Shingon Buddhist leader Yakou Sumioka’s writing on diligence, strength, and lifelong devotion to righteous aspirations.
