The only academic research facility situated on San Francisco Bay, the Estuary and Ocean Science Center (EOS) on the Romberg Tiburon Campus is one of the world’s leading sources of scholarship on marine and estuarine environments and serves as a dynamic teaching facility, an innovative training ground for future scientists and a trusted source of knowledge for public education about San Francisco Bay. The pioneering research the faculty and students at EOS conduct is remarkable considering many of EOS’s laboratories are located in repurposed WWII-era buildings on the site since its days as a naval base.

Modernizing EOS’s laboratories and facilities and establishing new scholarships and graduate fellowships will propel research at EOS forward and help SF State compete to recruit and retain the most talented graduate students and faculty.
