The University of Alabama at Birmingham, consistently recognized for achievements in education, research and more, has been named America’s No. 1 Best Large Employer by Forbes.
We believe one of the reasons we were named the best is because we do not feel like a "large employer" - we still have a "small employer" feel and attitude. While UAB is a big place and things can seem overwhelming at first, we have placed most everything you will need as a new employee right here.
