Outstanding Research and Scholarship Award (ORSA)

Formerly known as the Distinguished Scholar Award, these awards are intended to honor Kent State’s finest researchers and scholars. Recipients are selected based on the quality of their research and its impact on society. 

Any member of the KSU community, including faculty, emeriti, staff, students and alumni, may nominate any KSU faculty member, except those who have previously received a Distinguished Scholar or ORSA award.
