Please join us at the inaugural NJIT Digital Humanities Showcase event scheduled for Wednesday, March 6, 2:30PM-4:00PM, in Ballroom A, Campus Center at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark, NJ.
Digital Humanities at NJIT (DH@NJIT) is a group that brings together faculty members and staff from across the institution whose work employ computational methods that address issues in humanities broadly defined. Our 36 current members come from units such as College of Science and Liberal Arts, College of Architecture and Design, Ying Wu College of Computing, Albert Dorman Honors College, and the Van Houten and Littman Libraries. One of our major objectives is to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and share methods/approaches across disciplines.
The event will coincide with an Honors Colloquium and will be in the form of lightning talks to be followed by Q&A. Free and open to public. The poster is attached.
