The certificate program in Digital Humanities is designed for undergraduates who want to explore the intersection of humanities and STEM disciplines. DIGI classes are meant to combine the humanist skills of deep cultural, textual, and historic study with analytical methods and digital tools. Students will benefit from the application of subject-specific knowledge to collaborative, hands-on projects and classes.

To qualify for a DIGI certificate, students must complete seventeen credit hours in the DIGI rubric, including a capstone experience, usually a research-intensive digital humanities project of their own devising. This DIGI capstone experience may be a one-credit extension of a CURO, HONS, or senior thesis project, or, where those options are not available, the student may elect to take an independent study to complete the capstone. Students may take courses in any or all of DIGI's two core content areas—DIGI Issues and DIGI Praxis.
