    Centre for Leading Research in Education

    The Centre for Leading Research in Education (CLRiE) is the new university-wide research centre at Wilfrid Laurier University. It is a coming-together of Laurier faculty, staff, and students as well as researchers and partners from external community organizations with backgrounds in education, psychology, kinesiology, music, health studies, biology, languages and literatures, history, social work, youth and children’s studies, global studies, and more.

    The Centre aspires to support research and research-related activities in education. A salient feature of CLRiE is its focus on interdisciplinarity, encouraging the development of thoughtful, balanced, and creative approaches to educational research in a changing world.
