Welcome to the School of Travel Industry Management

The School of Travel Industry Management (TIM) on the University of Hawaii's Manoa campus is located in the heart of the Pacific. Our School is situated in midst of the world's fastest growing region for tourism and travel. We are the leading professional institution in the development and dissemination of knowledge on all aspects of the travel industry in the Asia-Pacific. Our diverse and highly-published faculty are very involved in research and service in addition to their teaching activities. Although the School specializes in the Asia-Pacific region, our student body and faculty are from across the globe.

The TIM School offers quality degree and professional educational programs including:

The Certificate in Sustainable Tourism is designed to provide non-TIM undergraduate students with an opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding of sustainable and responsible tourism principles and practices.

In today’s dynamic travel and tourism industry, private-sector companies, governments, and development agencies require timely information and research as well as educational programs to update their knowledge and skills. The School also houses the Center for Tourism Policy Studies (CTPS) which conducts research for academic, government, and industry use, offers professional development and continuing education programs, and provides technical assistance and other community services in tourism-related areas. With its comparative advantage of experience and expertise the CTPS provides resolutions to tourism challenges and opportunities in Hawaii and countries in the Asia-Pacific region.

Within the School's beautiful facilities in George Hall is the TIM Sunset Reference Center, the Leong Hop and Bernice C. Loui Computer Laboratory and the Chuck Yim Gee Technology Learning Center
