CCSC Membership Information

Membership Categories

Regular membership is for individuals who are employed by an institution of higher education and whose teaching or administrative responsibilities include significant, non-routine computer usage. Such individuals are typically faculty who teach about or with computers, or individuals involved in the support or delivery of academic computing services. Only regular members may hold office in the Consortium.

Affiliate membership (Non-Voting) is available toany individual or organization who wishes to keep informed of the activities of the Consortium, and includes all the benefits of regular membership except that affiliate members may not hold an office or vote.

Membership Benefits

All members receive the Journal of Computing Sciences in Colleges. Five issues each year present refereed papers from ten regional CCSC conferences, notices of interest to members, and reports on the activities of the Consortium's Board of Directors.

About the Consortium

The purpose of the Consortium is to promote the betterment of computer-oriented curricula in two- and four-year colleges and universities; to improve the use of computing as an educational resource for all disciplines; to encompass regional constituencies devoted to this purpose; and to promote a national liaison among local, regional, and national organizations also devoted to this purpose. Predominantly these colleges and universities are oriented toward teaching, rather than research.

The Consortium holds meetings in conjunction with other computer education organizations, on its own, and sponsors sessions and tracks at such meetings. The annual meeting of the membership is held in conjunction with the ACM/SIGCSE Technical Symposium on Computer Science Education.
