The purpose of this paper is to analyze how disorder affects the dynamics of critical
fluctuations for two different types of interacting particle system: the Curie-Weiss
and Kuramoto model. The models under consideration are a collection of spins and
rotators respectively. They both are subject to a mean field interaction and embedded
in a site-dependent, i.i.d. random environment. As the number of particles goes
to infinity their limiting dynamics become deterministic and exhibit phase transition.
The main result concerns the fluctuations around this deterministic limit at the critical
point in the thermodynamic limit. From a qualitative point of view, it indicates
that when disorder is added spin and rotator systems belong to two different classes
of universality, which is not the case for the homogeneous models (i.e., without disorder)
