UAF's students get an early and hands-on start in their fields. They're researchers in everything from medicine to geology, not just at the graduate level but also as undergrads. They're artists with displays in professional galleries, actors in local stage productions, fieldworkers on Alaska's archaeology digs and firefighters staffing the university's own department.

There’s a program for you here, and myriad minors, majors, degrees and certificates for you to earn. Perform research alongside academic powerhouses. Find and explore your voice in the arts. Make even more of your military service. Here’s where your intellectual journey gets good.

Not everyone’s support system looks the same. Yours may be family or friends. It may not look anything like your classmate’s support system either, and that’s OK. That’s why UAF provides students — and their support systems — with what’s needed for success.

Wilderness surrounds Fairbanks, yet highways, airlines, fiber and satellites firmly connect it to the world. So you can attend and earn your degree online from anywhere.
