The Exploratory pre-major affords a tremendous opportunity for students to discover, create, and learn about themselves, majors, and careers. Students benefit from the guidance, advising and support offered in the Exploratory Advising Center. Beginning with the required course during the first semester of classes, academic advisors assist students in choosing a focus of study. The Exploratory pre-major does not lead to a degree. Students must declare a degree major by the time they have earned 45 credit hours at Kent State University. Design: Students intrigued by the use of lights, stage props and sound in theatre and dance productions to create unique environments or perhaps the environment they are interested in is one of residential and commercial spaces – the lighting, interior materials and color, signage and graphics or the very structure and form of a building. A wide range of academic programs in design provide students with an opportunity to merge a creative life with a profession and to work individually, collaboratively or within an organization to bring value and beauty to our global community.
