A New Academic Hub
Hunter Hall of Science and Engineering will integrate emerging technologies and engineering with other science disciplines and serve as a gateway for innovation in high tech, biotech and life-science industrial growth in North San Diego County.
The building will be the physical pinnacle of our university, situated against the signature rolling hills that define CSUSM’s skyline and overlooking the growing metropolis of San Marcos and North City. Standing tall as the apex flagship building, its architecture will become a contemporary expression of our innovative identity.

A Diverse Workforce
The CSUSM engineering program was established in 2018 with electrical engineering and software engineering, with computer engineering established in fall 2023. Our program is focused on creating a pipeline of diverse, career-ready engineering graduates. To welcome and support our students—in all their rich diversity of experiences and backgrounds—is both an honor and a tremendous responsibility.

The thing I appreciate the most out of the program is growth. Growth professionally,
soft and technical skills alike, and personally, allowing me to make wonderful relationships
and take on leadership opportunities.
Expansive and Interactive
Students and faculty alike are drawn to CSUSM’s practical, hands-on experiences, which
cultivate and nurture regional leaders. Our faculty, leaders in their respective disciplines,
have achieved broad recognition for their research via grants and awards. But above
all, our faculty are teacher-scholars, dedicated to nurturing, enriching and empowering
students through holistic learning experiences.
Respecting the university’s established culture, the Integrated Science and Engineering Building will incorporate myriad opportunities for collaboration into a modern, mixed-use building that will serve as a stage for exciting synergies among students, faculty and industry partners.

Investing in the Future
Hunter Hall of Science and Engineering represents an economic investment in the future
of San Diego County and Southern California, as regional demand has outpaced the education
and production of new engineers and scientists. We need this building to be able to
increase our ability to educate today’s and tomorrow’s diverse engineers and scientists.
Enhanced Connections
Hunter Hall of Science and Engineering is designed to enhance connections through
diverse interior and exterior spaces that support spontaneous and planned interactions,
including teaching and research laboratories, classrooms, meeting spaces, common areas
and faculty and academic departmental offices, as well as workstations for adjunct
faculty and students—all equipped with the latest tools and technologies.
You can be the catalyst
While state-funded plans call for a one-wing building, complementing state funding with additional, private philanthropic donations is critical for long-term growth and sustainability, as well as expanding the square footage with a second wing.
