FIG #05 Digital Humanities
Get acquainted with an important emerging field in this FIG cluster! Digital Humanities sits at the intersection of computing and the humanities – using the humanities to critically reflect on our use of digital tools and the social implications of new technologies, while also using web programming and other computing tools to produce and present humanities knowledge in exciting new ways. The courses in this FIG also both count towards a Minor in Digital Humanities.
