CHASE Arts and Humanities in the Digital Age blog
The CHASE Arts and Humanities in the Digital Age programme will engage you with the concepts and practices that form the field of Digital Humanities, preparing you for the challenges of doing research in an increasingly digital world.
After completing the course, you will be able to analyse, understand and use digital data, to assess information technologies critically, and to integrate discipline-specific enquiry with digitally-driven methodologies and media to develop your own research. You will learn through workshops that combine methodological reflection with hands-on exercises and by developing a Digital Humanities project together with other students.
Attendance at all course workshops is mandatory.
Please use the application form below to indicate whether you require accommodation for the Winter School and the Mid-Project Retreat, which will be paid for by CHASE for all students who need it.
Deadline to apply 12 noon on Tuesday 18 December 2018
