The Hawaiian Studies Program is one of the most innovative baccalaureate programs at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo, offering two options for study, each focused on a Hawaiian-based cultural continuum:
- The continued development of Hawaiian culture within a Hawaiian language context.
- The monitoring of the direction of Hawaiian culture.

The program basically serves four groups of students:
- Those taking courses for their own interest and to fulfill University requirements,
- Those minoring in Hawaiian Studies,
- Those pursuing certificates in Hawaiian language or culture, and
- Those majoring in Hawaiian Studies.
