Abstract: We present a model for the integrated spectrum of star forming galaxies in which we have supplemented the spectral evolution population synthesis code of Bruzual & Charlot (in preparation) by computing self consistently, the emission line spectrum associated with the HII regions in star forming galaxies. We compare our results with the integrated spectra of nearby galaxies in Kennicutt (1992) atlas which show an excitation gradient with Hubble type in its nebular component.
