Undergraduate Program
Undergraduate opportunities at the intersections of humanities, data and computer science
On this page
The CDH enriches Princeton undergraduate scholarship by offering courses, supporting independent research, and providing training and employment opportunities.
Our flagship "Introduction to Digital Humanities" course is taught every year, and has served as the foundation for generations of Princeton undergrads who want to integrate the humanities and data or computer science.
Our staff and postdocs occasionally offer other courses on specific topics; keep an eye out for classes with the "CDH" course code.
Each spring, we award the prestigious Undergraduate Thesis Prize, which recognizes excellent undergraduate independent work in DH.
We occasionally offer internships and research assistantships that allow undergraduates to get involved in CDH projects.
