Welcome to Digital Humanities

Digital Humanities Logo
“Digital Humanities” describes efforts to study digital technologies and culture, employ computational practices in research and teaching, and reflect upon the impact of the digital. The Digital Humanities Initiative at SDSU promotes such critical engagement by providing a hub for innovation and collaboration across campus.

The Digital Humanities Center in the San Diego State University Library is the hub for our DH Initiative. Designed to reflect the values of DH@SDSU, the DHC supports just, ethical, and anti-oppressive research, teaching, and learning that values the importance of the humanities, and the interactions of humans in real time and space, in the digital age.
