The Baker Center is located at the heart of campus to powerfully symbolize the central nature of science and mathematics in the university's polytechnic curriculum. Every Cal Poly student will take a class in the 189,000-square-foot building, and many will spend a significant portion of their academic careers there.
Learn by Doing has been designed into the building. Ample study spaces encourage teamwork and close student-faculty interaction, advanced instrumentation rarely available to undergraduates fills the labs, and studio classrooms integrate lecture and lab, allowing students to actively discover science.

Though the Cal Poly Pier is located in the Pacific Ocean, it is part of the university's campus. At 3,000 feet long, the Avila Beach facility is 11 miles from the San Luis Obispo campus and provides students, faculty and researchers with unrivaled access to the marine environment of the Central Coast. The station is part of Cal Poly's Center for Coastal Marine Sciences and includes a classroom/ dry lab, conference room, flowing seawater system with wet-lab and aquarium space. The scientific diving and boating programs further expand access onto and under the water. At the pier, onsite monitoring instruments such as a meteorological station and an automated water column profiler provide real-time data used by student researchers. Bailey College outreach programs and events often use the pier to educate and inspire future marine science researchers. See more about the Cal Poly Pier.
