30 January 2015
The Center for Digital Humanities at Princeton University inspires and facilitates cutting-edge humanistic scholarship, inter-disciplinary and cross-disciplinary collaboration, and provides support for digital humanities projects at Princeton. This year, the Center will appoint its inaugural graduate student fellow. The Center for Digital Humanities Graduate Fellow will actively employ technology in their research and create or analyze digital content with the advice of CDH faculty and staff. Applicants must be ABD in the humanities or humanities-friendly social sciences at Princeton University and plan to defend a digitally inflected dissertation in their home department. Fellows receive a full year of funding (including tuition), allowing them to reserve a year of funding to be used in their first year of DCE status. During the fellowship year the fellows will have a shared workspace in the CDH, be expected to participate in Center activities, and receive support for their activities from Center staff. Fellows will have access to CDH expertise and will be trained in the methods and tools they need to complete the digital aspect of their project, which will need to be approved by their advisor as part of the dissertation completion plan. In addition to participating in the reading group and all Center activities, the graduate student fellow will be active in the graduate student caucus, will organize and lead one workshop, will have the opportunity to invite one outside speaker or organize an event, and will present a part of their project in the spring.12/11/15 - Peter Cornwell Speaks on "Rhetorics and Pragmatics of Sustainability in Digital Humanities"

Digital Humanities Graduate Student Caucus
22 January 2014
With interest steadily growing in digital and computational methods for research and analysis in the humanities and the social sciences, the Princeton Digital Humanities Initiative will be launching a graduate student caucus this coming Spring semester. The goal of the colloquium will be to create a space for graduate students across all disciplines (humanities, social sciences, and STEM) to share ideas, brainstorm new events and programs, learn new methods, and perhaps even collaborate on projects. A planning session (open to all who are interested) will be held on February 6, at 6:00 in the Humanities Resource Center Classroom, 012 East Pyne.
