Digital Humanities Working Group

DH Certificate Courses

The Digital Humanities graduate certificate requires completion of 9 credit hours culminating in the production of a digital portfolio, as follows:

  • 3 credit hours in a Digital Breadth Seminar
  • 3 credit hours in a Digital Depth Seminar
  • 3 credit hours in the Digital Studio, a capstone course. Students must have taken the required Digital Breadth and Digital Depth seminars before signing up for the Studio course (or with permission of the DH Graduate Certificate Committee).
  • Note: One of the Digital Breath or Digital Depth seminars must be taken outside a student’s home department (i.e., a graduate student in English may satisfy the depth and breadth requirements by taking a depth seminar in English and a breadth course in History; a graduate student in History could satisfy the depth requirement by taking a course in Geography and the breadth course by taking a course in English).

Students may also petition to have a course that is not already listed, including directed readings, count toward the Certificate. For consideration of a course, the student should contact the DH Graduate Certificate Committee with a copy of the course syllabus and an explanation of why the course should count. The Committee will review the petition and exercise judgement on a case-by-case basis.

Digital Depth or Digital Breadth Requirements

The following are courses that have been offered at UF and will count toward the Digital Depth or Digital Breadth Requirements. Course offerings change very frequently, with growing numbers of courses relevant to the digital humanities. If you don’t see a particular course on this list, please contact the Certificate Committee! We welcome petitions from students to count other courses, as well as directed readings, toward this requirement.
