Welcome to the Department of History at ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ.
We offer both major and minor programs at the undergraduate level, as well as the M.A. program for advanced study in history. The department’s course offerings at all levels are chronologically, geographically, and topically broad, but we have a particular strength in the histories of the Rust Belt region, state and private violence, and everyday life.
With a presence on six of ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ State’s eight campuses, the department’s faculty number two dozen and include many award-winning teachers and researchers.
Take advantage of our website to find information about our course offerings, programs of study, faculty and more. Additional information may be obtained by contacting our undergraduate coordinator, Dr. Shane Strate or graduate coordinator, Dr. Lindsay Starkey.
Thanks for your interest in the Department of History.

History-to-Law School 3+3 Pathway
The Department of History is excited to announce a program that allows history majors to matriculate directly into one of five law schools we partner with - it is called a 3+3 Program.
The link below details the process of going from a Bachelor of Arts in History from KSU to a law degree. This 3+3 Pathway gives students a quicker and more efficient path to their law degree.
If you have questions please contact the department’s Undergraduate Coordinator, Dr. Shane Strate @ sstrate@kent.edu.
