Digital humanities is a form of the humanities that is located at the nexus of the digital revolution and humanistic learning. The digital age has been transforming human life and in many ways human nature itself. The distinctive place of DH in the academy is to enable the humanities to engage critically in the interrogation of digital technologies. Likewise, it explores traditional humanities questions using the distinctive, investigative powers the computer age affords. Each side of the concept of “digital humanities” holds the other accountable and enables each to engage in a more complex and mutually beneficial relationship.
The Digital Humanities Certificate is designed for students who wish to study the humanities and want to demonstrate they are technologically skilled. Many humanities’ students may not pursue careers in the traditional humanities. All humanities’ students will be challenged to display competence, expertise, and creativity in the novel application of digital technology to most realms of work, play, and life. This certificate is designed for those students who wish both to study the humanities and are also interested in developing digital skills immediately applicable to the job market they will face upon graduation.
Students will realize the liberal arts ideal of "learning how to learn," a trait that all future employers look for.
