Center for Community College Student Engagement

The Center for Community College Student Engagement is a research and service project of the Program in Higher Education Leadership in The University of Texas at Austin (UT) College of Education. The Center was founded in 2001 under the name Community College Survey of Student Engagement (CCSSE). Major grants from the Houston Endowment Inc., the Lumina Foundation for Education, the MetLife Foundation, the James Irvine Foundation, and The Pew Charitable Trusts have supported the Center's work.

In August 2008, the Center moved off the UT main campus to accommodate growing operational needs. In conjunction with this move and in recognition of its broadening portfolio of services, CCSSE was renamed the Center for Community College Student Engagement.
