The University of Alaska Fairbanks College of Rural and Community Development and
the Community and Technical College have been busy working to update their 10-year
campus master plan. Board of Regents Policy 05.12.030 requires a CMP for each campus.
The 2023 CRCD and CTC campus master planning effort is informed by a shared vision
that will guide the development of the two college's campuses and instructional sites
over the next decade.
Imagine being a moose in late May: You have just survived 200 days of cold and darkness
by munching the equivalent of a large garbage bag full of frozen twigs each day. Now,
billions of salad greens are unfolding from those same woody plants, providing a scent
and texture savored for an instant before one sweep of the moose's head strips a wispy
branch. All over Alaska, moose are sucking in new leaves like whales inhaling plankton.

The Office of Admissions is launching a new transfer credit tool that will allow users
to see how courses taken at other universities transfer to UAF. The estimator will allow students can pick their intended major and the institution
they'll be transferring credits from, and the estimator will give them an unofficial
degree completion report so they can see how credits will transfer. Students will
also be able to see how close they are to completing a UAF degree. Learn more ...
