Digital Humanities Tools and Resources

List of digital humanities projects at UT Austin.

The Initiative for Digital Humanities (IDH) provides a nexus for humanities and digital studies at the University of Texas Austin. Collaborative and interdisciplinary, the IDH network crosses the humanities and the social sciences within and beyond the College of Liberal Arts to support faculty, students, and staff who apply digital technologies and computational methods to humanities questions and subject technology to humanistic interrogation. IDH aims to support and connect Digital Humanities research through consultation, seed and bridge funding, grant writing and management support, and coordinated programming, including discussion groups and a lecture series.

This certificate is designed to introduce students to the ideas, materials and computational tools that underlie this field. It is open to students of all majors. Students take eighteen credit hours from a selection of courses taught in different departments and colleges at UT Austin. The DH Certificate will harness students’ engagement with and excitement about digital technologies and media and put that energy to use in a flexible curriculum that requires both skills acquisition and critical inquiry.

The School of Information (iSchool) and the Department of English at the University of Texas at Austin offer a dual-degree program leading to the Master of Arts (MA) degree in English and the Master of Science in Information Studies (MSInfoStds) degree.
