Our Mission
The University of Alaska Southeast is a student-centered university that provides instruction in liberal arts, professional, and technical fields. On the homelands of the Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian peoples, we serve the coastal environments, cultures, economies, and communities of Alaska, through interdisciplinary education, workforce development, and scholarship, research, and creative activity.
UAS is on the unceded territories of the Áak'w Kwáan, Taant'á Kwáan, and Sheet'ká Kwáan on Lingít Aaní and we are grateful for their stewardship of these places that are also known as Juneau, Ketchikan, and Sitka, Alaska, which are adjacent to the ancestral home of the Xaadas and Ts'msyen peoples.
