Degree Overview

The Digital Humanities integrated learning major is a 21-credit interdisciplinary program that brings the traditional strengths of the humanities to the study of digital culture. The digital studies major provides students with a structured opportunity to apply the skills of critical thinking, creativity, and historical contextualization to digital cultures and technologies. The major features three introductory core courses, one course focused on technical skills, three elective courses chosen from offerings in various disciplines, and a capstone in which students will demonstrate their mastery and understanding of digital culture. The major seeks to combine a rigorous contextualization of digital technology and culture within a much longer history (and analysis of our own moment in history) with creative experimentation with digital technology.

Study Reasons

Combine an understanding of digital technologies with a range of majors such as English and textual studies, writing and rhetoric or history.

Receive guidance from an academic advisor who will help you select the best major pairing based on your unique interests.

Understand technology in relation to its history and development, as well as how technology is reshaping culture—from politics to video games to digital identity.
