Support Group for Information Architecture (SGIA) is the first student-based community fostering student growth, education, research, and practical experience in the field of information architecture at the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

SGIA is the first organization of its kind at the University to support students in the fields of library and information science and information and computer science, as well as other related academic disciplines, who are truly interested in organizing complex information systems.

What makes SGIA unique and of interest to you is the fact that you can apply your unique skill sets as a student to real-world problems. SGIA focuses on building better Web sites, placing users at the heart of the design process.

SGIA is also about teamwork and collaboration, extending your effectiveness as an individual through a team-based environment. SGIA is also about moving theory into practice, applying academic theories and critical thinking skills to problem solving and real-world scenarios.

If you'd like to explore the field of information architecture, build an attractive portfolio, gain more client-developer experience, or to simply meet great minds aside from yourself, SGIA invites you to ignite your mind and to represent your field of study at SGIA's First Meeting. More...
