Welcome to Kent State's Eight-Campus System

Campuses Offer Degrees in Computer Technology, Education, Nursing, Humanities & Much More

Kent State University's eight-campus system, one of the largest regional systems in the country, serves both the development of a true living/learning approach at the Kent Campus and regional needs on seven other campuses throughout Northeast Ohio. The campuses offer a wide array of programs ranging from computer technology and nursing to arts and humanities. The Kent Campus provides the resources and facilities of a large, diverse university, while the Regional Campuses - Ashtabula, East Liverpool, Geauga, Salem, Stark, Trumbull and Tuscarawas - offer the friendly, casual atmosphere of small liberal arts colleges.
