At UAA, you can pursue your dream of becoming an engineer or computer scientist while living in Anchorage — the business, industrial, cultural and recreational center of Alaska. Located near major Alaska employers of engineering talent, 74% of our job-seeking students have jobs before they graduate!
The Alaska Department of Labor has projected the state will need 300 new computer and engineering professionals annually through 2022, 96 new positions and 204 new engineers to replace retirees. UAA's College of Engineering is committed to producing graduates with cutting-edge skills ready to energize the state's growing engineering community — and you can help.
