Yairamaren Román Maldonado, a graduate student in Spanish & Portuguese with a designated emphasis in New Media, attended the Digital Humanities Summer Institute at the University of Victoria for the second year in a row, after taking “Electronic Literature in the Digital Humanities: Research and Practice” in 2014. This year, she attended two classes, “Digital Humanities with a Global Outlook” and “Advanced Criticism and Authoring of Electronic Literature”.

DH Intern MacKenzie Alessi, a senior undergraduate majoring in Interdisciplinary Field Studies and New Media, spent the summer sharpening her programming skills for two projects at the Berkeley Center for New Media.

We are pleased to announce the first set of courses supported by Digital Humanities at Berkeley New Course Component grants. These classes showcase the innovative ways that instructors have embedded digital humanities skills into disciplinary practices and offer students the opportunity to work with a variety of digital tools and methods. Instructors will be collaborating with campus partners, such as the Archaeological Resource Facility (ARF), the Center for New Music and Audio Technologies (CNMAT), and the Visual Resources Center (VRC).

This summer, Alex Saum-Pascual, DH Fellow and Assistant Professor of Spanish and Portuguese, is working on bringing the electronic literature community to campus.

This Fall, Political Science Ph.D. Candidate Rochelle Terman wants to expose other graduate students to a broad palette of useful digital humanities tools in the hopes that they will be encouraged to make use of new methods in their own research.
