Check Out Fall 2023 Graduate DH Course Offerings in NJ and NY

For graduate students in the humanities looking to use computational methods in their research or study the histories, cultures, and theories of information, we’ve made a list of relevant courses for Fall 2023 offered throughout the Inter-University Doctoral Consortium (IUDC). The IUDC is an association of universities in New York and New Jersey that enables PhD students to enroll in graduate-level courses for credit at any of the participating universities.

These courses can also be used to satisfy the elective requirement for the CDH’s new Graduate Certificate in Digital Humanities (so long as students get them approved by the certificate directors). To enroll in a course, submit copies of a completed registration form to the IUDC coordinator at both your host and home institutions by any school-specific deadlines.
