Across departments, instructors are experimenting with different ways to incorporate digital humanities methods and critical perspectives into undergraduate and graduate courses. Students are engaging with the digital by exploring computational methods, building models and reconstructions, and developing theoretical critiques and artistic creations. Below, we highlight a few current and upcoming courses taught by DH Fellows and other campus partners.

Fall 2015

The first set of courses featuring new components funded by DH at Berkeley made their debut this fall.

This fall, David Bamman joined the School of Information faculty as an Assistant Professor. His research in natural language processing and machine learning has direct applications for digital humanities scholarship. Bamman himself has a background in the humanities, including undergraduate studies in classics and English literature at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and an M.A. in Applied Linguistics from Boston University.
