The University of Alaska Fairbanks is Alaska’s top teaching and research university and the state’s only Ph.D.-granting institution. On its flagship Fairbanks campus and through its network of community campuses across the state, UAF serves 10,500 undergraduate and graduate students. UAF is a richly diverse academic setting with a high percentage of Alaska Native, Native American, and international students along with a wide variety of other ethnic backgrounds and a substantial number of non-traditional students. On-campus housing accommodates 1,700 students, faculty and staff, and the campus provides venues for many community events throughout the year. The Fairbanks campus is a leading research intensive university with programs in social and natural sciences, arts, and interdisciplinary areas with a particular emphasis on the North.
Fairbanks is Alaska’s second largest city and blends the amenities expected of a much larger city with the warmth and friendliness of a small town. Residents embrace the extreme climate, easy access to Alaska’s wilderness, and strong sense of community. Moving to Fairbanks can be as much a lifestyle decision as it is a career opportunity.
