San Diego State University (SDSU) is a public research university in San Diego, California. Founded in 1897, it is the third-oldest university and southernmost in the 23-member California State University (CSU) system. SDSU is the oldest higher education institution in San Diego; its academic roots were established as a normal school in University Heights, then known as the San Diego Normal School. In the fall of 2023, the university enrolled over 37,000 students.[8]
The university consists of eight colleges and offers over 200 degree programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels.[9] It is classified among "R2: Doctoral Universities – High research activity". The university is accredited by the WASC Senior College and University Commission. SDSU is a federally-designated Hispanic-serving Institution (HSI) as well as an Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution (AANAPISI).
SDSU's athletic teams are collectively known as the Aztecs. They compete in NCAA Division I (FBS) as members of the Mountain West Conference. The university currently fields varsity teams across 17 NCAA-sanctioned sports. SDSU Mission Valley is a 166-acre (67 ha) noncontiguous expansion parcel west of the main campus; it contains facilities for university research and housing as well as Snapdragon Stadium, home of the Aztecs football team.
