�鶹��ý

Once again, U.S. News & World Report validates �鶹��ý’s academic strengths with the university’s inclusion on several lists in the 2024 Best Colleges rankings.

Once again, �鶹��ý has been named one of the Best Employers for Women in a nationwide ranking by Forbes and marketing research firm Statista. Kent State has been named to the list for the sixth consecutive year, having been included each year since Forbes began publishing the Best Employers for Women list in 2018.

�鶹��ý will celebrate the Flying Flashes, Peyton Turner and Laura Wilson, who defended the team’s title by winning the 2023 Air Race Classic.

U.S. News & World Report ranks 11 �鶹��ý programs among the best in the nation in its recently released 2023-2024 Best Graduate Schools rankings.

“Always Ready, Always There” is the motto of the National Guard. In many ways, this describes �鶹��ý’s Center for Adult and Veteran Services, too. For the 14th consecutive year, Kent State has been designated a Military Friendly^Ⓡ School.

Sponsored by the �鶹��ý Alumni Association, the Alumni Awards are the university’s highest alumni honors. Recipients are selected based on their exceptional professional and civic contributions and for their outstanding support of the university. The 2022 Alumni Award recipients include six alumni and one student.

�鶹��ý’s commitment to diversity and inclusion has been recognized with the 2022 Higher Education Excellence in Diversity (HEED) Award by INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine, the oldest and largest diversity-focused publication in higher education. The annual award recognizes U.S. colleges and universities that demonstrate an outstanding commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Members of the �鶹��ý community can take great pride in their university’s hometown. The city of Kent has been selected by Ohio Magazine as a 2022-2023 Best Hometown. The Best Hometown honor recognizes Kent as a great place to live, work and visit.

�鶹��ý is one of the best colleges in the nation to work for, according to a recent survey. For the 11th time, Kent State has been named a “Great College to Work For,” which recognizes the colleges that get top ratings from their employees regarding workplace practices and policies.
