The University of Alaska Fairbanks offers degree programs on the Fairbanks campus and at the Juneau Center, through the Fisheries Division of the School of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences. Freshwater fisheries and habitat ecology are emphasized at Fairbanks, and marine fisheries and aquaculture at Juneau.
Students can take classes at one or both campuses as part of their degree program.
Degrees offered are B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. in Fisheries. The undergraduate degree program is offered only at the Fairbanks campus, but courses also can be taken at the Juneau Center. The program provides a broad education, qualifying graduates to enter fisheries management, law enforcement, and public education. The fisheries program provides a firm foundation for graduate studies in fisheries science. During their first two years, undergraduate students take basic science and mathematics courses along with university core courses.
