Digital Public Humanities Minor
Digital Public Humanities is the application of digital technology to the discovery, development, and dissemination of knowledge in the humanities. The public focus of digital humanities at Messiah University supports both the mission of the University to serve church and society as well as our specific desire that the humanities serve the common good. The Digital Public Humanities minor allows you to combine new media with the study and interpretation of the humanities in a range of public projects. In the digital public humanities, you will engage the terrain of faith and human culture as you produce, reflect on and shape ideas and experiences in the digital age.
