Top Ten Facts That Prospective Graduate
Applicants Should Know About Kent State.....
The Kent State Physics Department holds the distinction of being number-one in the US for making physics interesting and attractive to non-science undergraduate
majors, as documented by the fact that the fraction of all students across the university who take at
least one physics course is much higher at Kent than at any other comparable university in the US.
The connection to our graduate program arises from the fact that all our beginning graduate students,
as well as some of our more advanced students, are supported by a Teaching Assistantship duty that
most often involves undergraduate education. Thus our graduate students receive training in various
aspects of our record-setting undergraduate program, and this experience is a valuable asset in the
future careers of our master's and PhD graduates, even if their post-degree employment does not
directly involve undergraduate education.
