Organizations and Resources Network

The University of Kansas Center for Russian, East European and Eurasian Studies (CREES) is a center for the study of the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, offering degree-granting programs and serving as a resource. It aims to 1) meet the national need for Russian, East European and Eurasian specialists in academic, government, and private sectors by producing students with superior language training and an excellent foundation in area studies; 2) support students and faculty in their research and intellectual enhancement so that they can become and remain superior teachers, scholars, and mentors; and 3) be a resource locally, regionally, and nationally, providing outreach, support services, and information.
