The Center For Regional Development (CRD) is an interdisciplinary research platform with expertise in regional economics and community development. The Center's mission is to design and implement innovative and pragmatic solutions to a wide variety of regional challenges. Community and regional development may be defined as a process whereby the economic, social, cultural, and environmental resources of a region are harnessed for the betterment of the people in that region.

We are working with other research centers in our region and around the globe to explore and share development and research opportunities. With research partners in the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, the CRD is working hard to provide world-class ideas and move them from our campus to your community.
