About Marine Biology
San Diego State University offers a Bachelor of Science in Biology with an emphasis in Marine Biology. This program provides students with an education in marine ecosystems, focusing on marine ecology, evolutionary biology, and the physical sciences. Core courses include cell and molecular biology, ecology, and organismal biology, with hands-on lab and fieldwork integrated into the curriculum. The Coastal and Marine Institute (CMI) plays a key role, offering valuable research opportunities in San Diego Bay and surrounding coastal environments, helping students develop skills in applied and theoretical marine sciences. Graduates are well-prepared for careers in marine biology, environmental science, or further graduate study.
