The faculty of the Mathematics and Natural Science Department offer a assortment of courses to meet the needs of the diverse student body at Kapi'olani Community College. Health Sciences, Nursing, Biotechnology, Exercise and Sports Science, Engineering, and Sleep Science are just some of the specialized programs offered or supported by the department. Liberal Arts students, in programs offered by other departments in the College, enroll in math and science courses to fulfill specific core requirements. Many of our students choose to begin their college education at KCC with plans to transfer to 4-year degree programs at the University of Hawai'i Manoa, or other UH campuses or colleges within the State. Most of the courses offered by the Mathematics and Natural Science Department are transferable within the University of Hawai'i system. Transfer of credit to other schools is usually possible but not assured.

Our faculty members enthusiastically serve the students, the College and the community to aid the development of a scientifically literate and logical citizenry that objectively analyzes, examines, and evaluates the activities and impacts of science, and also understands and appreciates the complexity and diversity of mathematical reasoning and scientific endeavors.
