Beschreibung des Programms

The digital humanities program—one of a few such undergraduate programs in the country—explores what it means to be human when digital technology mediates so much of our lives.

As a student in the Bachelor of Science in Digital Humanities program, you will examine a blend of traditional humanities disciplines—history, philosophy, linguistics, rhetoric, literature, and art history—in the context of practical, hands-on work in the digital world.

You’ll learn about communications in the context of visual design and web development, and learn how to communicate complex ideas in new ways. You will examine the evolution of technology from a historical perspective. You might study ethics in the framework of the professional and digital worlds, or explore how people use technology and how it affects their lives.

Your coursework will stretch beyond writing traditional papers to include the creation of interactive audio-visual projects demonstrating your mastery of the material. In your final year, you will complete a capstone project on a topic of your choosing. Your hard work will result in a portfolio that can be used in job interviews or graduate school applications.

Program Overview

Students examine the impact of technology on human life, studying traditional humanities disciplines—history, philosophy, linguistics, rhetoric, literature, and art history—in the context of practical, hands-on work in the digital world. Graduates go on to diverse careers requiring digital skills.
