Philippine Studies as a field of study at UHM -

• Philippine Studies can be taken as a field of concentration for a B.A. Asian Studies major, or for an M.A. in Asian Studies. Doctoral students can take courses and write their dissertations on the Philippines, but the degree is in the discipline, e.g., Ph.D. in Linguistics, Political Science, Economics, etc.
• There is another B.A. in Philippine Languages and Literatures in both Filipino and Ilokano offered by the Department of Hawaiian and Indo-Pacific Languages and Literatures, College of Languages, Literature and Linguistics.
• Students currently taking their M.A. in Asian Studies can pick up a Graduate Certificate in Philippine Studies after 18 credits. Graduate students in other departments or colleges (e.g. Business Administration, Education, etc.) are also eligible for the Certificate after consultation with the Center.
