After attending Université Lumière in Lyon, France, Mariam decided to further her education by working towards her Master of Arts in Communication at HPU.  

“I came to Hawaii on vacation but could not go back because I fell in love with Honolulu. I researched local colleges and found that HPU was the only one that could fulfill my educational goals."

"As a result of my time here at HPU, I have gained valuable experience and have come to understand how important intercultural communication skills are in today’s globalized world.”
