CRI Mission Graphic

We want students and faculty to be energized through innovative research and entrepreneurship, and thereby make a meaningful impact on the world.

Innovation is the intrinsic quality of an organization to identify and apply beneficial new solutions. At Taylor, we desire to foster a spirit of innovation with the Center for Research and Innovation (CR&I). The CR&I is a comprehensive entity that provides the resources necessary for faculty and students to pursue their dreams. These resources range from facilities and equipment, to seed funding, to administrative and expert support.
