BA Digital Humanities

Digital humanities is where culture meets technology — an intersection that allows for critical inquiry, digital research, and creative expression. Digital humanities is a field that asks students to think critically about how digital platforms are produced, the ways in which multimodal digital works communicate to the public, and how these works shape culture and society. Digital Humanities is a great option for students interested in literature, history, and culture who also want to explore and create in digital spaces using evolving technology.

The Centenary University Bachelor of Arts in Digital Humanities program is interdisciplinary. Students take a variety of courses in English, History, Communications, Writing, Computer Science, and Business. Students also take 3 courses in Digital Humanities.

Digital Humanities majors create an individual capstone project that encompasses the various facets of the coursework taken throughout the major. This project is multimodal, gives them hands-on experience with digital production, and might serve as a showcase piece for job applications. It will show evidence of their critical inquiry into a topic within the humanities and the development of their digital multi-literacy skills. Students can share their capstone projects with the campus community.
