The School of Management Experience
The University of Alaska Fairbanks School of 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, SOM prepares broadly-educated professionals with a wealth of hands-on experience.

Think outside the classroom
What sets SOM 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 SOM’s major events, are encouraged to join at least one of the many SOM student organizations, and are funded for travel opportunities to conferences, competitions and career-focused trips.
Connect to community
SOM 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 School of 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.

Congratulations to all the 2020 SOM graduates!
May 29, 2020
On Saturday, May 23, the University of Alaska Fairbanks celebrated its 98th commencement with its first ever virtual ceremony. Every year, our School of Management graduates achieve their goals through countless hours of hard work attending classes, studying, and completing homework and group projects to earn their diploma. This year’s graduates faced unprecedented challenges as the spring semester was upended and all classes were moved to online delivery. As always, we are continually impressed by our students’ strength, resilience, and adaptability as they weathered these storms and continued to succeed in their efforts. We can’t wait to see how our SOM graduates will use their valuable skills and resources learned through their education to positively impact the community!
