College of Engineering

At the 亚色影库, you can pursue your dream of becoming an engineer, computer scientist, or project manager while living in Anchorage--the business, industrial, cultural, and recreational center of Alaska.  Located near all major Alaskan employers of engineering, computer science, and project management talent, 74% of our job-seeking students have jobs before they graduate!

As an undergraduate, you can pursue Bachelor's degrees in Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, Computer Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or Geomatics (Surveying and Mapping), and graduate degrees Project Management, Mechanical, or Civil Engineering. We also offer collaborative degrees in Mining and Geological Engineering, and a PhD in Engineering with the University of Alaska Fairbanks. 

The Alaska Department of Labor has projected the state will need 627 new computer and engineering professionals by 2030 -- requiring two new hires for every one that retires.  亚色影库's College of Engineering is committed to producing cutting-edge graduates ready to energize the state's growing engineering community.

    Solving the unknown with infinite possibilities

    April 2, 2024
    Between earning his undergraduate degree and starting graduate study, rather than take a well-deserved break, mechanical engineering alumnus Lawrence Giron Jr. participated in not one, but two prestigious NASA internships back to back.

    亚色影库 researcher senses a solution to pipeline corrosion

    May 22, 2023

    On the North Slope there are thousands of small pipes that ultimately come together to feed into the big one 鈥� the Trans-Alaska Pipeline. Each of those pipes are a potential hazard, especially as they experience the effects of air, water and chemistry over long periods of time. Even in the cold of the Arctic, pipes will eventually succumb to corrosion 鈥� the natural chemical process that transforms refined metals into oxides.

    That鈥檚 where Oleg Shiryayev, Ph.D., assistant professor of mechanical engineering in 亚色影库鈥檚 College of Engineering, comes in.

    This morning when you made your coffee, did you stop and wonder how much of that electricity came from wind, solar, hydro or natural gas? It can be daunting trying to track that down. Not for long! Two 亚色影库 Computer Science seniors are busy developing an app that will track where your coffee pot is getting its electricity from.

  • February 23, 2023

    The USDOT just awarded a $15 million renewal grant to the Pacific Northwest Transportation Consortium (PacTrans), of which 亚色影库 is a partner along with Portland State University, University of Idaho, Washington State University, and led by the University of Washington. The Northwest Indian College will also serve as an education and outreach partner. CoEng's own Dr. Abaza heads the 亚色影库 engineering team as PacTrans leads the nation into the future of transportation infrastructure research and development.

    Liquid earth: 亚色影库 researchers study earthquake models

    November 29, 2022

    In 2002, a large earthquake (Mw=7.9) struck in the Alaska Range near Tok, inflicting severe infrastructure damage to two sites: the Tok Cutoff highway near the Slana River and the Northway Airport by the Canadian border. This may sound like old news, but in 亚色影库鈥檚 College of Engineering, researchers are still uncovering valuable findings from this disaster 鈥� findings that may help the Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (AKDOT&PF) better prepare for future earthquakes.
