UAA School of Engineering offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering (BSE) with specializations in:
Additionally, a minor in Engineering is offered.
Graduates with a BSE degree have a broad range of engineering skills. These skills are often necessary when serving the infrastructure needs of remote rural areas typical of many Alaskan communities as well as more urban areas such as Anchorage. The BSE program emphasizes fundamental engineering principles as a basis for interdisciplinary design, teamwork, and for lifelong learning.
The BSE program is a design oriented curriculum that incorporates topics that span the foundations of engineering disciplines. BSE students select courses for a specialization track that best suits their needs. Thus, the BSE curriculum can custom fit a student's education with the needs of the community and industry.
The BSE program has had exploding enrollments during the first two years since its creation. More than 400 students have been accepted into the program specializing in Computer Systems, Electrical, or Mechanical Engineering. Enrollments are expected to double within the next few years.
