During this transition period from the School of Management to the College of Business and Security Management, you will see either or both the SOM and CBSM names used while we work through the complex and detailed name change process. We remain committed to providing the same high-quality education you have come to expect from the premier business school in Alaska.
The College of Business and Security Management Experience
The University of Alaska Fairbanks College of Business and Security Management is dedicated to providing high-quality business education in Alaska through a unique, active and experiential learning environment. With small class sizes, dedicated and approachable faculty and many opportunities for students to connect with the local community and professionals in their fields, CBSM prepares broadly-educated professionals with a wealth of hands-on experience.

Think outside the classroom
What sets CBSM apart from other schools are the extensive opportunities available for hands-on learning experiences beyond the classroom that prepare students for professional success. Students help run CBSM’s major events, are encouraged to join at least one of the many CBSM student organizations, and are funded for travel opportunities to conferences, competitions and career-focused trips.
Connect to community
CBSM provides numerous opportunities for students to connect with local businesses and the greater Fairbanks community. Class projects are aimed toward helping local businesses, and events such as the KPMG Spring Etiquette Seminar and Dinner are held annually to allow students to interact directly with professionals in their fields.
Accreditation means quality
The UAF College of Business and Security Management and its accounting program are simultaneously accredited through the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International. This highly sought after dual accreditation has only been achieved by 1.5% of AACSB universities worldwide and UAF is the only university in Alaska with this distinction.
