A brief description of the institution’s formal participatory or shared governance bodies:
Since fall 1996, the Faculty of CSU Monterey Bay has exercised its rights and fulfilled its responsibilities in the shared governance of the University, by working through two formal bodies: an inclusive Academic Assembly, and a representative Academic Senate.
The Associated Students of California State University, Monterey Bay is an organization that seeks to serve, empower, and represent students in all areas of student concern. We engage in an active role in the decisions, actions, and the affairs of our university through advocacy and equitable governance.

California State University Employees Union (CSUEU)

Teamsters Local 2010
