Kentucky State University

President's Welcome

Welcome to Kentucky State University!

I invite you to explore our Web site to get a glimpse of a dynamic, diverse campus that offers an exciting social atmosphere, an engaged faculty and staff as well as academics with an attitude.

Our students experience the balance of classroom instruction, laboratory research and involvement with the community. They have numerous opportunities for internships within the state capital, to attend national leadership workshops and conferences and to participate in academic, athletic and cultural competitions.

KSU’s scenic 900-acre campus features both historic and state-of-the-art buildings, research facilities and an environmental education center, where the university and the broader communities can explore the state’s ecological diversity. KSU is expanding in enrollment, programs and opportunities.

Kentucky State University is also committed to making higher education affordable, while providing a quality education that will help students become leaders in their communities and contributors to their chosen professions.

Founded in 1886, KSU’s tradition of teaching, research and community remains strong. I again welcome you to browse this Web site for information on all aspects of the university and what we have to offer you.
