The Humanities Digital Workshop is a support service for developing long-term faculty digital projects in Arts & Sciences.

Core Description

The HDW is part of the infrastructure at Washington University for digital scholarship in the humanities — what’s often termed the digital humanities or humanities computing — that includes Olin Library’s Digital Library Services, GIS@Wustl, the Center for Empirical Research in the Law, and the American Culture Studies program. The HDW promotes the university’s activities in both of its basic vectors: in research, by facilitating projects that require or benefit from data collection and analysis, or electronic publication; in teaching, by bringing students into the research process in concrete ways that can be rare in the humanities. (It’s one of the happy facts about digital projects that they’re often intensely collaborative.)
