What our minors say

Going through the process of getting a minor in the Digital Humanities has been both beneficial and enlightening. I get to learn computer skills that I would not have previously learned through regular humanities classes and I get to relate this technical knowledge to literature in ways that make me expand my understanding of textual studies. This minor helps me understand the advancement and preservation of the field of English studies.
