The University of Kansas Center for Russian, East European and Eurasian Studies (CREES) is one of seventeen Title VI Comprehensive National Resource Centers for the Russian and East Central European area supported by the U.S. Department of Education. CREES has been a National Resource Center since 1965, offering degree-granting programs and serving as a resource for K-12 teachers, post-secondary educators, business, media, government, and military.
CREES faculty and students have conducted field work, researched, and taught
courses covering the entire region: from new European Union members in the
west to the Russian Far East; from indigenous peoples of the Arctic to traditionally
Islamic societies of the South Caucasus and Central Asia. Through the Department
of Slavic Languages and Literatures and other language programs, students
can study Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian, Czech, Polish, Russian, Slovene, Turkish,
Ukrainian, and Uyghur. KU Library resources are unparalleled in the Central
Plains, featuring thousands of bound volumes and electronic resources in all
disciplines. CREES also hosts The
Russian Review 
,
the renowned Russian studies journal, as well as electronic resources about
the South Caucasus and Central Asia (KU
Silk Road Resources ).
The Center for Russian, Eastern European and Eurasian Studies is on the third
