The Centre for Religion and Modernity (CRM) was founded in 2012 as an institutionalised research network at the University of Münster in order to intensify and consolidate the interdisciplinary research on religion in the field of modernity at the University of Münster, which was initiated by the Cluster of Excellence "Religion and Politics". To this end, numerous researchers have joined forces in the CRM. In the meantime, the CRM has established itself as an interdisciplinary research network in Germany and abroad and has made a name for itself with its own events and research projects. A board of directors elected by the general meeting every two years coordinates the work of the CRM and is supported by the administrative office.
