HARDI’s Ph.D. students will join an influential research network that will play a significant role in their future research. This network will include at least four prominent researchers from around the world, University of Hawaii faculty, and their fellow Ph.D. students from around the globe. We expect that by attending the program, students will have developed a workable research idea/proposal that is practically relevant.
