About the Digital Studies Certificate at UMD
The DSAH certificate program offers graduate students a chance to combine the critical study of digital experience writ large. This is a unique opportunity to explore and to combine various critical, creative, and computational approaches to doing the work of digital studies and digital humanities.
The Digital Studies in Arts and Humanities (DSAH) Certificate program is jointly administered by the College of Arts and Humanities (ARHU) and the Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities (MITH), with additional sponsorship from the Department of English and the School of Languages, Literatures, and Cultures.

Qualifying courses for the certificate are collected from across the University of Maryland. Students also participate in the DSAH Colloquium and complete DSAH's Introduction to Digital Humanities course. These experiences lay the groundwork for the integration of diverse traditions, practices, and methodologies into student work in the arts and humanities.
In facilitating digital study through the discovery and development of communities of practice and scholarship, the DSAH certificate program also enables students from all disciplines to understand how arts and humanities thinking are critical to the development, critique, and implementation of digital and computational tools.
Any matriculated graduate student in the College of Arts and Humanities at the University of Maryland on the College Park campus may request admission.
