The Certificate of Achievement in Agripharmatech is offered in two tracks: Plant Biotechnology and Ethnopharmacognosy. The plant biotechnology track deals with developing and improving plant production in order to supply the world’s need for healthier and more nutritious food crops, novel ornamentals, and plant-derived pharmaceuticals. Ethnopharmacognosy is the study of traditional medicines derived from natural sources.

The Veterinary Assisting/ Technology Program offers Laboratory and clinical experiences that expand on classroom knowledge to equip students with the necessary skills of an entry-level veterinary technician.

Gallery ‘Iolani was established in 1985 in the basement of Hale ‘Iolani by devoted art faculty and students with no resources to coordinate a gallery program.
