The Office of Research and the Graduate School provide a variety of resources for the University of Alaska Anchorage's faculty, staff and students.  

Research administration occurs within two distinct offices: pre-award activities are administered with the function of the Office of Sponsored Programs, while post-award activities are under the direction of the Grants and Contracts staff.  Issues of research integrity including the ethical conduct of research, research involving human subjects or vertebrate animals, chemicals, radioisotopes and certain biological materials are within the administrative function of the Office of Research Compliance and Integrity. 

The Dean of the Graduate School has responsibility and oversight for graduate programs at the University of Alaska Anchorage
