Digital technologies enable scholars to perform large-scale analyses of texts, images and historical data. For example, social network analysis in historical contexts or the processing of large literary corpora facilitates discoveries that were impossible with manual methods.

The digitization of historical archives and museum collections, together with digital preservation tools, ensures access to fragile or scattered materials. This has transformed research in areas such as art history, archaeology, and literary studies by facilitating access to and preservation of primary sources.

The Digital Humanities not only serve the academic community, but also provide greater access to knowledge for the general public. Digital tools such as open learning platforms and digital libraries promote free access to academic materials and historical resources.

The field of DH is inherently interdisciplinary, combining the rigor of the humanities with the dynamism of computer science, artificial intelligence, software engineering and data science. This transdisciplinary approach has facilitated innovative collaborations between historians, engineers and data scientists, generating new methodologies and research projects.

The Digital Humanities Department is a pioneer in the field. It offers undergraduate, master’s and doctoral programs in Digital Humanities, covering topics that range from digital preservation to cultural data analysis. Projects include digitizing medieval manuscripts and implementing technology to study Shakespeare’s plays.
