Message from the Dean

Welcome to the College of Science & Engineering (CoSE) at San Francisco State University. As we embark on the 2024 – 2025 academic year, we are excited to announce the opening of the Science & Engineering Innovation Center (SEIC)! This all-electric 125,000-square-foot facility boasts state-of-the-art maker spaces, a machine shop, applied project spaces, and cutting-edge research and teaching labs. The SEIC will be home to the School of Engineering and Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry, along with collaborative learning spaces for all CoSE disciplines. We’re eager to introduce new classes and research programs that will further our commitment to innovation.

This year we are also commemorating the 75th anniversary of our Sierra Nevada Field Campus, which has been instrumental in educating countless learners and remains a vital resource for our students.

Our students are at the heart of CoSE, engaging in hands-on projects that put into practice what they are learning in their classes. With over 400 paid research opportunities funded by federal, state and private grants, our college is a hub of discovery and exploration. We are also proud to offer more than 100 scholarships annually thanks to generous support from our alumni and friends.

Our dedicated faculty and staff strive to provide an enriching learning experience for every student. With our inclusive campus life, world-class faculty, supportive services and location in San Francisco, Biotech Bay and Silicon Valley, we ignite the power of education for all so our students can positively impact their communities and the world.

We hope you will discover the breadth of training opportunities, achievements and upcoming events at CoSE by exploring our website.

Carmen Domingo, Ph.D.
