About the Cluster
The Digital Humanities Research Cluster is a community of Faculty, Students, and Staff engaged in using technology to define new modes of Humanities research, analysis, publication, teaching and learning. We host ongoing and special events, including a lecture series, hands-on workshops, and reading groups.
Through these events, we engage with new trends in the field of research and teaching and envision the future of Digital Humanities at UCSC. Together, we will inform, support, and enrich current individual Digital Humanities projects and foster new ones.
Learn more about Digital Humanities at UCSC and join the DH mailing list for up to date news. For additional tools and resources visit the Digital Scholarship Commons (DSC) or the Faculty Instructional Technology Center (FITC) in McHenry Library.
