Request for Applications

Applications are now open to all UH faculty, librarians, and doctoral students for the Summer 2024 Micro-credential in Digital Humanities program. Designed to equip researchers with the essential skills for successful digital humanities projects, the program offers two tracks:
  • Badge I: Foundations of DH Project Development (June 3-14, 2024)
  • Badge II: Intermediate DH Project Development (prerequisite: Badge I or equivalent experience) (June 10-14, 2024)
Completion of either badge grants participants year-long access to the resources, training, and programming provided by the DHC. Apply by May 1.
Crafted as a partnership between the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Data Science Institute and UH Libraries, the Digital Humanities Core (DHC) consolidates technological infrastructure, research tools, and interdisciplinary expertise to establish a digital project production and publishing facility for UH researchers. The DHC, initiated in 2022, will be housed in and administered by UH Libraries.
