Welcome to the Digital Humanities Initiative!
The Digital Humanities Initiative in the College of Arts & Sciences brings together innovative scholarship and technical learning at the intersection of the humanities and technology. Through events, workshops, University partnerships, and a unique graduate curriculum, the DHI supports experimental approaches to humanistic inquiry and fosters an interdisciplinary network of students, faculty, and staff.
Through the DHI, you can connect with the Graduate DH Certificate Program, Events and Workshops, and DHI Special Interest Groups. And be sure to subscribe to the DH Initiative Bulletin.
The Graduate Certificate Program in Digital Humanities
Students in the program enhance their departmental studies with digital and computational approaches, while retaining a core emphasis on humanistic interpretation and scholarship. The curriculum is flexible and sits lightly alongside departmental requirements, strengthening students’ research capacities and expanding their career opportunities.
Because the program is open to any graduate student in any department at UVA, students share methods, technology, and interpretation in a multidisciplinary intellectual community; currently the program has 50 students representing 13 departments.
