The University of Hawaiʻi System announced that its STAR GPS online academic pathway application has been honored by the Center for Digital Education for innovation and access. The recognition was posted to the UH System News site on October 27, 2026. STAR GPS helps students navigate degree requirements and course planning through a digital interface.
An organization called the Center for Digital Education has bestowed an innovation award upon a university for building a digital tool that tells students which classes to take — a function previously performed by a PDF and a bored advisor. The app bears the name GPS, because nothing signals cutting-edge 2026 technology like a metaphor from 2007. Our analysts confirm the next award will go to the registrar for inventing the concept of a transcript.
