The College of Professional Studies
The College of Professional Studies at Kentucky State University offers undergraduate programs that prepare students to combine their broad liberal backgrounds with specialized training that applies both in their everyday lives and in their technical and social-service careers. The College offers coursework leading to baccalaureate degrees in the fields of Computer Science, Criminal Justice, Education, Applied Human Sciences, Nursing, Social Work, and Physical Education. An Associate in Applied Science degree is also available in the areas of Computer Graphics and Multimedia Production Technology, Computer Electronics Technology, and Nursing.

The University's Liberal Studies Requirements strengthen all baccalaureate programs within the College and are compatible with the requirements of the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCA TE), the Kentucky Education Professional Standards Board (EPSB), and the Council on Social Work Education. The College of Professional Studies supports the educational initiatives of Tech Prep.

Support is available to develop articulation agreements with community colleges to provide a seamless education transition to KSU in an effort to avoid duplication of coursework and ensure that students are adequately prepared to enter KSU programs. The advantages gained by Tech Prep students at the secondary level should continue during their academic pursuits at Kentucky State University and carry forward in their careers. Interested students should contact the Dean of the College of Professional Studies for further information.
