School of Architecture Advisory Council
The primary purpose of the Dean’s Advisory Council is to assist the School in shaping, refining, and achieving its vision, mission, and goals. The Advisory Council additionally foster closer ties between the School and its stakeholders. To ensure this, the Advisory Council includes, but is not limited to, alumni and leaders of industries, businesses and organizations that employ the School’s graduates and collaborate with the School’s research, education and outreach programs. As part of a public university, the School does receive state-funded support. However, the School requires financial and in-kind support beyond these levels if it is to compete internationally with other architecture schools for students, faculty and professional recognition. The Advisory Council helps the School garner this support.

Global Track Advisory Board (GTAB)
The Global Track Advisory Board (GTAB) plays an integral role in guiding and supporting the Global Track Dual Degree Program. All board members contribute unique and varying views for the Global Track program. Each member offers a depth of experience that inspires the program to expand our perspective to not only see but to strive to undertake the challenges of leading our profession through the coming decades. The Advisory Board helps to validate and critique existing practice but is most valuable in assisting in the future growth and development of the Global Track.
Constant changes affecting relations between Hawai‘i and China create a unique environment for the GTAB to grow the roots of this distinct dual degree program between UHM and Tongji University. With so much potential for our program, there are many questions that the GTAB addresses as a team to facilitate critical decisions. The GTAB enjoys working closely with Global Track students and highly values student feedback during meetings.
The Global Track Dual Degree Program would not be the program it currently is without the time, dedication and support of the entire The Global Track Advisory Board. The School is especially excited the program’s future and the leadership and guidance and by the inspiration offered by the GTAB.
