Kent State University’s History Department faculty specialize in American,
European, African, Latin American, Asian and Medieval history, and offer
courses that range widely across the chronologic, thematic and geographic
sweep of humankind’s existence. Introductory lecture courses prepare
students for the challenges of living and working in the global community
of the twenty-first century. Upper-division courses — including a researchintensive Senior Seminar — provide students with challenging
perspectives on a variety of topics, and provide them with the means to
sharpen their reading, research, critical thinking and writing skills.
Kent State University’s graduate program in history offers two degrees: the
Master of Arts and the Doctor of Philosophy. In addition to a traditional
M.A. degree, students can pursue concentrations in public history and
history for teachers. General inquiries regarding graduate study in history
should be directed to the department’s graduate coordinator, Professor
Mary Ann Heiss (mheiss@kent.edu).
