Nation's First College of Honors & Global Education Logo

Welcome to the College of Honors and Global Education!

As of July 1, Kent State University's Honors College and Office of Global Education officially came together to form the new College of Honors and Global Education, the first college of its kind in the nation to intentionally integrate honors education and global engagement. 

The new college represents more than a new name. It reflects a new vision for preparing students to thrive in an interconnected world. By bringing together academic excellence, interdisciplinary learning, global engagement and career readiness, the college creates more intentional student experiences that expand opportunities, broaden perspectives and prepare graduates for success wherever their futures take them. 

This is just the beginning. In the coming months, we'll share more about the exciting opportunities, programs and experiences that will define the College of Honors and Global Education.  

At Kent State, the World Is Your Backyard.
