Morphology

CSC = C + S + C

This is an initialism/acronym composed of letters; the letters themselves do not convey the meaning without knowing the expanded phrase, so the form-to-meaning relationship is opaque for learners.

Etymology

CSC is made from the first letters of a longer name, for example Computer Science Corporation. Like NASA or FBI, those letters act as a 'short name' for an organization or a technical term, which is why people use CSC instead of the long name.
