Sociologists study the workings of social phenomena – social unrest, sexuality, culture, inequality, social organization, healthcare, criminology and related phenomena – by focusing on the social origins of the self, groups and institutions. Our faculty members are active researchers on questions regarding race, ethnicity, gender and sexuality, crime, deviance, global security, inequality, healthcare and mental health, labor and work, identity, and the institutions of family and religion.

The mission of the Department of Psychological Sciences is to foster the success of our undergraduate and graduate students, build a department nationally and internationally recognized for its research excellence, and contribute to our local community and society at large. At the center of our mission is a commitment to fostering an inclusive environment in which we celebrate our diversity and come together as one community.

The Center for Applied Conflict Management transformed into the School of Peace and Conflict Studies effective August 2017. The Center for Applied Conflict Management (originally called the Center for Peaceful Change) was established in 1971 as a “living memorial” to the students killed by the Ohio National Guard during a student protest against the Vietnam War on May 4, 1970. The Center was created to study and to promote peaceful mechanisms of change. Today the School of Peace and Conflict Studies regularly enrolls over 1,000 students each year in courses that teach applied skills in conflict management and nonviolent change.

Political Science is for, as we say, people who care to matter. That’s because our classes and our faculty study power, which affects everyone’s life, whether in the family, the workplace, business, or government. If you want to change something at Kent State, in your community, or in the world, you need to understand how power is distributed and wielded—that’s what we do here. Whether your interests lie in the fight for democratic freedoms, human rights, the global environment, racial equality, social welfare, or some other vital cause, we will help you study it and engage it.

Welcome to the Department of Geography! The Department of Geography at Kent State University offers BA, MS, and PhD degrees in Geography, an interdisciplinary BA in Environmental Studies, along with a fully online Master of GIS. The department’s mission is to provide an inspirational environment for the pursuit of geographic knowledge. Our faculty research seeks to promote positive social and environmental change, with a focus on interdisciplinary applications and collaboration. We work at the intersection of global and local: while our research sites span five continents, we also work locally to apply our geographic knowledge to problem-solving at the community level.
