San Diego
USD's Alcalá Park
Campus
The 180-acre campus overlooks Mission Bay Aquatic Park with views of San
Diego Bay and the Pacific Ocean. Close to business, cultural, residential,
and recreational areas, the campus is near the air and rail terminals, and
a city bus line runs right past the campus. The campus is named Alcalá Park
after the Spanish university city of Alcalá where St. Didacus, from
whom San Diego received its name, worked and studied.
The City
Known for many reasons as "America's Finest City," San Diego has
an almost perfect climate with warm, sunny days and cool evenings. Throughout
the year, students can take advantage of San Diego's many outdoor recreational
and cultural opportunities. The museums of Balboa Park, the Old Globe Theatre,
the zoo, Sea World, the beaches, the opera, and downtown San Diego and La
Jolla are only minutes away. The rapidly developing economy of Greater San
Diego provides varied employment opportunities for the USD graduate.
