PACE FACULTY FELLOWS
The PACE Faculty Fellows program aims to recognize and support faculty who are making significant contributions to entrepreneurship education at the University of Hawaii. Faculty, from any discipline and any campus, who are integrating core entrepreneurial concepts into their teaching, are invited to apply.
PACE supports faculty participants in the EL3vate program. EL3vate is a faculty professional development initiative aimed at incorporating experiential learning, entrepreneurial frameworks, and engineering design thinking into course curricula. Developed in collaboration with the UH Online Innovation Center (UHOIC) and the Maui Economic Development Board (MEDB), this year-long program happens in three phases.
