Abstract

This paper tracks the events leading up to the launch of the Centre for Computing and Social Responsibility in 1995. The first few months of frenetic activity to establish a viable research unit are analysed. A new typology is designed for analysing higher education departments. This is used to map some of the key events and activities as CCSR matured into a research centre of international standing. This analysis is primarily focused on the period up to 2010. The paper concludes with contextualising current and future CCSR activity against this historical analysis.
