University of Alaska Anchorage Offers a Unique Blend of Academics and Adventures Surrounded by some of the wildest, most magnificent scenery in all of North America, UAA is set in the cultural, economic and health care center of Alaska. It's a comprehensive university that affords many students the intimacy and personal attention of a small college. The University is exceptional in many ways. No wonder this dynamic institution draws students from many of the lower 48 states and beyond. "Our location is truly remarkable," says Rick Weems, Associate Vice Chancellor for Enrollment Management. "We're an urban university in a lively, ethnically diverse city, yet we're within minutes of spectacular wilderness." Almost as outstanding as its location is UAA's wide array of academic offerings. From liberal arts, to professional piloting and air traffic control; from teacher education, to nursing, UAA has programs to satisfy every interest and ambition. Other popular programs include civil engineering, business, social work, hotel/restaurant management and global logistics. The university offers over 150 degree programs in all.
