UTHC announces recipients of funding for 2024 Digital Humanities Summer Institute

November 17, 2023

• The UT Humanities Center, in partnership with the Digital Humanities Summer Institute (DHSI), is providing funding for four UT faculty and one UT graduate student to attend the 2024 DHSI. This is the second year that the UTHC has provided this opportunity for UT participants.

  The DHSI is an annual digital scholarship training institute held at the University of Victoria in British Columbia. DHSI brings together an international gathering of 800-900 participants from across the arts, humanities, library, and archives communities. The program consists of two sets of week-long intensive course offerings, seminars, and lectures focused on helping participants develop expertise in advanced technologies as well as current digital humanities methodologies and ideas.

  This year’s recipients of DHSI funding are:

  Mark Baggett – Associate Professor, UT Libraries

  Heather Coker Hawkins – Assistant Professor, School of Art

  Lisa King – Associate Professor, Department of English

  Enilda Romero-Hall – Associate Professor, College of Education, Health, and Human Sciences

  Hannah Trammel – MA student, Department of English

  Applications were judged based on the relevance of the applicants’ research and teaching to the field of digital humanities, the fit of the DHSI courses they plan to attend, and how the applicants’ work contributes to the UTHC and the digital humanities community of scholars at UT.
