Welcome!
Our Community encompasses students, staff, and faculty from all disciplines at UAF. Explore the sections below to learn more about the URSA experience.

URSA students and mentors accomplish great things! Read their stories to learn more about their interests, projects, reflections, and more!
Research and Creative Activity (RCA) Day is UAF's annual celebration of undergraduate
student experiences across campus!
This annual event allows students to showcase their scholarly experiences from the
current academic year through posters, presentations, creative displays, and public
performances. Both URSA-funded and non-URSA students are encouraged to participate.
URSA supports student projects from all disciplines on campus. Learn more about the
URSA experience from outreach videos made by students just like you!
