ACNS and other UAF students traveled to the Kohklux Map: 150 Years Conference in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory in October 2019. Ph.D. student Yoko Kugo (foreground) presented her research at the conference.

  • Make the Arctic and Northern Studies Program and its students visible on campus through various events and activities
  • Organize community outreach events aimed at students and faculty at the university as well as the general Fairbanks public
  • Raise awareness of issues relating to the north and provide a forum for discussion and interaction
  • Create a fun learning environment for students and faculty to interact with each other
