Requirements: DASH Minor
The 15-unit minor is necessarily flexible to accommodate the various backgrounds and goals of its students. The curriculum addresses data management, statistics, text analysis, geospatial analysis, digital prosopography, data visualization and information design. It entails experience in digital project work, and features a good deal of cross-disciplinary engagement. Our goal is to enrich the analytic skills that students can bring to bear on traditional and emerging topics across the humanities.
