The Initiative for Digital Humanities (IDH) at the University of Texas Austin serves as a hub for integrating humanities and digital studies. It fosters collaboration and interdisciplinary work across the humanities and social sciences, both within and beyond the College of Liberal Arts. The IDH supports faculty, students, and staff in applying digital technologies and computational methods to humanities research, while also examining technology through a humanistic lens.
IDH’s mission includes supporting and connecting Digital Humanities research through various means such as consultations, seed and bridge funding, grant writing and management support, and coordinated programming like discussion groups and a lecture series.
Digital Studies at UT
Digital Studies at UT explores how humanities and informationstudies intersect with digital tools, archives, artifacts, and technologies. Innovative scholarship in the twenty-first century requires working not only across disciplinary boundaries, but also across schools and units that practice distinct modes of thought and approaches. The emerging field of digital studies transforms research, learning environments and systems of cultural preservation by leveraging institutional differences through collaborations that cross traditional institutional units and hierarchies.
