Brigham Young University-Hawaii, a non-profit organization headquartered in the US, was founded in 1955 and employs approximately 1,210 individuals. The university operates as a producer of live sporting events, such as basketball and volleyball games, broadcasting over 70% of home games across campus and on the parent BYU network.
On August 17, 2026, Academic Vice President R. Kelly Haws appointed Nancy Tarawhiti as the new associate academic vice president for faculty at Brigham Young University–Hawaii. Tarawhiti succeeds Yifen Beus, who announced plans to retire at the end of December after 26 years of teaching and leadership at BYU–Hawaii. Previously, on July 8, 2026, BYU–Hawaii students Aliah Flores and Jolina Vivas Vidal presented original research on language assessment at the KOTESOL International Conference 2026 in South Korea. Earlier, on June 26, 2026, the university highlighted its Leadership Development Team, created approximately a year ago by Derek Whetten, resource and improvement manager, to enhance student employee experiences and develop skills. This followed the Asia Pacific Career Conference Oceania 2026, hosted by BYU–Hawaii from June 9 to June 12, connecting students with Pacific employers and strengthening professional relationships across the region. In mid-June, BYU–Hawaii recognized the student leadership at Print Services, where manager Moana Taito and her team transformed the operation into a fully student-run entity after the departure of two full-time staff members last year.
