The Department of Mechanical Engineering at UH Mānoa equips Hawaiʻi’s future engineers with the hands‑on skills needed to design, build, and improve the systems that power daily life. Your Giving Day support strengthens the labs, makerspaces, and learning environments where students test ideas, solve real problems, and prepare for careers in energy, transportation, manufacturing, and robotics.
Our goal is to reach 75 donors in 24 hours to advance lab modernization, student projects, and resources for keeping experiential learning strong.
Every gift—of any size—directly supports student success. Mahalo for helping shape Hawaiʻi’s next generation of engineers.
