The “” project is designed to highlight university excellence and points of pride through storytelling and data. The goal is to keep university stakeholders informed about the university’s key role in changing lives and shaping the state's economy.

 “Alaska has so much to offer our country, our fellow citizens, even our allies around the world in conjunction with the university,” Alaska Sen. Dan Sullivan said in the video. “We can attract the best minds, the best research on energy, on critical minerals we need, that our allies need, and we can do that in conjunction with training a world-class workforce.”

The presentation highlights the efforts underway to address energy security, the research being conducted, and what it could mean for Alaska and the university to provide domestic energy security for our state and the rest of the country.
