The first International Research and Education Programme on "Human Complex Systems" was founded in 2011 by Piero Dominici, who is also Scientific Director of the Centre, at the University of Perugia. In 2017, the Centre became part of the Department of Philosophy, Social, Human and Educational Sciences (FiSSUF), directed by Prof. Massimiliano Marianelli. Today, the programme has been renamed “CHAOS”, which stands for Complex Human Adaptive Organisations and Systems, and forms part of a number of prestigious international networks of universities and research centres studying complexity and complex systems, with particular reference to issues related to education, training and scientific research.
