A Look Back: CHoSTM's History
CHoSTM started out as part of Imperial College London. It was one of three departments that together formed the London Centre for the History of Science, Medicine, and Technology. Their first offices were in the Central Library at Imperial College's campus in South Kensington, London, United Kingdom.
The Centre itself was officially created in 1992. However, the study of science history had been taught at the college much earlier, since 1963. In 2007, CHoSTM joined with the Humanities Programme. It was even recognized as a top history department in the UK in 2008 for its research!
