Alita Kristensen, Norway, MACOM Student


Alita chose the Master of Arts in Communication at HPU because she wanted to excel in public relations, business and international communication.

“The graduate experience at HPU has taught me that structure is essential for my everyday life, both in and out of school. The diversity of nationalities both at HPU and in Hawaii has allowed me to understand that teamwork, clear communication, patience and cultural sensitivity are all keys to success at the graduate level. I have also learned a lot about myself."

"I recommend HPU because the programs and instruction are academically solid, and the incredible location speaks for itself.”
