Developments in technology have recently transformed our way of working. In-depth knowledge of computer science therefore becomes essential in research and graduates in the arts and humanities often find themselves faced with using computer tools in their field of research and in workplace.
With this in mind, the undergraduate degree in digital humanities aims to train in 3 years students in new professions, so that they can develop digital skills, and thus add a digital dimension to their area of expertise; allowing them to open up to other disciplines, even to a larger community. It is a multidisciplinary programme.
This degree is proposed by the Centre of Digital Humanities.
