CREECA’s mission is to support research, teaching, and outreach on Russia, Eastern and Central Europe, and Central Asia. CREECA approaches this three-part mission by promoting faculty research across a range of disciplines; by supporting graduate and undergraduate teaching and training related to the region; and by serving as a community resource through outreach activities targeted to K-12 teachers and students, other institutions of higher education, and the general public.
