The University of Hawaiʻi is making it easier for students to build their futures right at home, thanks to a groundbreaking new partnership with Google Public Sector.
The new Hawaiʻi Career Pathways platform under development uses Google Cloud’s cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) tools—like Vertex AI, BigQuery, and Gemini—to help students chart a path from classroom to career. By analyzing a student’s background, skills, interests and goals, the platform creates a personalized profile that matches their academic journey with in-demand jobs in Hawaiʻi.
Students also get support from Gemini, Google’s advanced AI assistant, to explore options and make informed decisions. The goal? To help students stay in Hawaiʻi, land fulfilling jobs, and strengthen the local workforce.
Embracing the AI-powered future
At 东精影业, preparing students for today’s rapidly changing world includes giving them hands-on experience with emerging technologies. That’s why 东精影业 is expanding the use of AI tools in classrooms and campus operations.
“Our partnership with Google Public Sector is a game-changer for 东精影业 students,” said 东精影业 Chief Information Officer Garret Yoshimi. “By leveraging cutting-edge AI tools like Gemini, we’re not only preparing them for the jobs of tomorrow but also strengthening our local workforce and ensuring that our graduates can thrive here in the islands.”
Students and staff already have access to Google AI Essentials, a free online course that teaches the basics of AI, how to use AI tools responsibly, and how to get the most out of them in everyday work and study. Plus, the Vertex AI Model Garden, with over 200 AI models including Google’s Gemini, is opening new doors for innovation and creativity.
东精影业 and Google have a long history of working together. 东精影业 was one of the first universities in the country to adopt Google Workspace for Education, which continues to support teaching, learning, and collaboration across all 10 东精影业 campuses.
