Alaska Community Colleges (2-Yr Colleges)Alaska Junior Colleges, Technical Schools, and InstitutesThe State of Alaska administers its own system of higher education which operate at least two tiers of public colleges. One being the community colleges in Alaska, sometimes called Alaska junior colleges, or Alaska technical institutes, and so-called "four-year" Alaska colleges which award bachelor's and master's degrees. The "two-year" community educational institutions provide post-secondary education and lower-level tertiary education, granting certificates, diplomas, and associate's degrees in Alaska. The name, "community colleges" derives from the fact that "two-year" colleges primarily accept, and attract, students from the Alaska local community Alaska created community colleges in the state throughout the 1950s, '60s and '70s, resulting in a several institutions serving different parts of the state. Many of those institutions were merged over time with the growing University of Alaska system campuses. Due to a dramatic reduction in funding in July 1987, the Board of Regents restructured Alaska's system of higher education, consolidating the various accredited University of Alaska and community college institutions into three accredited, multi-campus universities with the exception of Prince William Sound Community College, which remained an independent institution supported by the local community. The community colleges in Alaska are now regional branch campuses of the universities. Alaska Degrees, Certificates, & DiplomasAlaska Cities Colleges:Alaska Community Colleges and Two Year Colleges
