Students not admissible to the Kent Campus may be administratively referred to one of the seven regional campuses to begin their college coursework. For more information, visit theadmissions website for first-year students.
First-Year Students on the Regional Campuses:First-year admission to Kent State’s campuses at Ashtabula, East Liverpool, Geauga, Salem, Stark, Trumbull and Tuscarawas, as well as the Twinsburg Academic Center, is open to anyone with a high school diploma or its equivalent. For more information on admissions, contact theRegional Campuses admissions offices.
International Students:All international students must provide proof of English language proficiency unless they meet specific exceptions. For more information, visit theadmissions website for international students.
Transfer Students:Students who have attended any other educational institution after graduating from high school must apply as undergraduate transfer students. For more information, visit theadmissions website for transfer students.
Former Students:Former Kent State students or graduates who have not attended another college or university since Kent State may complete the reenrollment or reinstatement form on theUniversity Registrar’s website.
Admission policies for undergraduate students may be found in the University Catalog.
Some programs may require that students meet certain requirements before progressing through the program. For programs with progression requirements, the information is shown on the Coursework tab.

Full Description
航空系统科学的学士学位tems Engineering Technology prepares graduates to enter careers in the design, installation, manufacturing, testing, evaluation, technical sales and maintenance of aeronautical/aerospace systems. Students gain technical expertise in engineering materials, statics, strength of materials, applied aerodynamics, applied propulsion and electronics. Graduates have strengths in the analysis, applied design, development, implementation and oversight of more advanced aeronautical/aerospace systems and processes. Applicants to this program should understand that this is a math-intensive program.
Information on the program’s education objectives, student enrollment and graduation data can be found on thecollege website.
Students may apply early to theMaster of Engineering Technology degreeand double count 9 credit hours of graduate courses toward both degree programs. See theCombined Bachelor's/Master's Degree Programpolicy in the University Catalog for more information.
