Kent
The Board of Trustees of Kent State University is composed of 11 members who are appointed by the Governor of the State of Ohio, with the advice and consent of the State Senate.
Kent State University is Northeast Ohio’s No. 1 choice among public universities. With state support of the university providing less than 20% of its budget, the university relies on private support to ensure student success, enhance academic excellence and innovation, expand breakthrough research, and provide contemporary, high-tech facilities for learning, study and research.
This site is designed to provide Kent State employees with easy access to relevant forms and policies, as well as the services and programs offered by Human Resources. Our goal is for you to find the information you need quickly and efficiently - whether you are a candidate, a new hire, a current employee or a manager.
