Undergraduate Programs
Accelerated and Affordable Business Pathways
Hawaiʻi Pacific University’s College of Business has several exciting opportunities that may be especially valuable for college‑bound students who are eager to accelerate their education while keeping it affordable.
Global Business Accelerated Track
HPU has launched an innovative Bachelor of Science in Global Business (BSGB)—a 90‑credit, accelerated three‑year degree designed to deliver a high‑quality, skills‑focused academic experience that prepares students for real‑world success. The program incorporates interdisciplinary coursework, applied learning, internships, and global perspectives, all within an efficient and affordable pathway.
Dual-Credit Pathways
Our College of Business continues to expand options that help students move more quickly and cost‑effectively towards earning their degrees. These include dual‑credit pathways, allowing motivated high school students to begin earning university credit early and transition seamlessly into a bachelor’s program.
Concurrent Registration
Concurrent Registration enables motivated students to get a head start on their master's degrees while still an undergraduate HPU student. Eligible undergraduate students may enroll in certain graduate courses and earn both graduate and undergraduate credit simultaneously for the same course. These courses may be used toward a graduate program to save you time and money. You can earn a master's degree in Business Administration (MBA) or Business Analytics (MSBA) in less than a year.
Together, these offerings create a clearer, more efficient path from high school to career‑ready graduation.
