Digital Humanities is a new field that brings together the arts, humanities, and technology. The DH major at JSLH will help students to become sensitive, critical, and reflective readers and users of digital tools and spaces by understanding their embeddedness in political, social, and economic contexts. Technologies such as digital mapping, quantitative textual analysis, spatial story-telling and social media analysis will equip students to understand and study the arts as well as humanities disciplines through digital computational tools. DH is interdisciplinary in its foundation, and the courses in this JSLH major are taught by faculty across the social science disciplines— environmental studies, economics, history, literary studies, sociology, and art.
