Organizational Mission

The Center for Regional Development is a chartered research center of Bowling Green State University.

A research center exists primarily to provide a means by which interdepartmental, interschool, and intercollegiate boundaries may be bridged in pursuit of new knowledge or the solution of applied research problems.

The research activity of a BGSU research center cuts across several disciplines and involves a team of scholars, each one of whom contributes a special perspective and competency to the research.
