Software Studies Reading Group

This reading group is focused on the field of software studies, which interprets software (and more generally, computational culture, computers, networking, etc) as historical and cultural artifacts.

Courses 

We offer the HUMAN 2DH3 course, also known as “Introduction to Digital Humanities.” This course introduces students to DH research methods and tools, teach them about analysis, preservation, and resource creation, and integrate a practical component where students create digital projects.
