Welcome!

You've reached the Philosophy Department at Kent State University, located in 320 Bowman Hall. Our department includes 16 dedicated full-time faculty on 3 campuses (Kent, Stark, and Trumbull), all committed to our unique pluralistic curriculum.

The department offers the B.A. and M.A. degrees in philosophy, with more than 75 courses from which to choose. In addition to the traditional major and minor, the department is home to programs in healthcare ethics and religion studies. Our courses are integral to the university's pre-law minor, the Women's Studies program, and more.
