The Center for Statistics and the Social Sciences was founded in 1999 with the triple mission of galvanizing collaborative research between social scientists and statisticians, developing a menu of new graduate courses for social science students, and enhancing undergraduate statistics training for the social sciences. Initiated with funding from the University Initiatives Fund, CSSS was the first center in the nation devoted to the interface of statistics and the social sciences. Adrian Raftery was the founding director of CSSS, and he served as the director for ten years. Raftery was followed by Thomas Richardson, who was the director from 2009 - 2014. Katherine Stovel is the current Director of CSSS.
Since its founding in 1999, CSSS has developed into an established component of the University of Washington's research and training environment, with strong ties to the Statistics Department, multiple social science departments, and the University's eScience Institute. Currently six members of the UW faculty are designated as CSSS Core faculty members, while close to 100 others are affiliated with CSSS.
