San Diego Miramar College is a public community college located in San Diego, California, part of the San Diego Community College District alongside City College and Mesa College. Founded in 1969, Miramar College serves approximately 14,000 students and is nationally distinguished for its FAA-certified aeronautics and aviation programs, reflecting its location adjacent to Marine Corps Air Station Miramar in the northern inland area of San Diego.

Miramar College also maintains strong programs in fire technology, administration of justice, and computer information systems. The college's location in the growing Scripps Ranch and Miramar area of northern San Diego places it near major employers in defense, biotech, and technology.
