University of Hawaii offers an undergraduate degree in interpretation and translation through Interdisciplinary Studies. Students design their own major (Interpretation and Translation), as well as the courses they need to take with the help of advisors from Interdisciplinary Studies. For more information, please contact Interdisciplinary Studies or the CITS Office.
CITS offers an abundance of courses to students of any major. For a list of courses offered, please see Current Courses.
If you are NOT currently a UH student, you can register for CITS courses by mail (or in-person) by calling the Outreach College Office: 956-8400. You need to get the CRN (Course Registration Number) and Section number for the courses from us before registering.
People who are interested in high-level interpretation skills and who are not in pursuit of a degree can choose to take our Summer Intensive Interpreter Training (SIIT) program. This program is offered every two years. Candidates are required to pass a screening test to determine the language level. International students need only a travel visa for this program. For more information, please click here.
CITS will soon be offering a Certificate in Community Interpreting with a focus on Legal, Medical and/or Social Service Interpreting. More information coming soon.
