Graduate Certificate in Digital Studies at University of Maryland, College Park

University of Maryland, College Park, United States

Programme overview

Digital Studies in the Arts and Humanities (DSAH) is an interdisciplinary Graduate Certificate at the University of Maryland. It offers graduate students a chance to combine the critical study of new forms of digital media and identity with creative and analytical practices utilizing digital media as well as the application of computational tools and techniques to traditional areas of humanistic study. While it is often hands-on or applied, Digital Studies also encourages—indeed demands—work that is primarily critical, theoretical, or experimental in nature.

Entry requirements

Graduate admission requirements: Statement of Purpose Transcript(s) TOEFL/IELTS/PTE ( international graduate students ) | Programme-specific: Letters of Recommendation (3) CV/Resume Application for admission to the Certificate is currently available on a rolling basis to any matriculated graduate student in the College of Arts and Humanities (ARHU) at the University of Maryland’s College Park campus. Admission is selective, and will be offered at the discretion of the program Director and the Advisory Board . Considerations in admissions decisions will include the student’s current academic standing, the extent to which students can demonstrate that their research or professional plans are compatible with the goals and objectives of the program, and—vitally—diversity. We regret that we cannot offer admission to candidates who are not currently graduate students already enrolled in an ARHU department or program on the College Park campus, though enrollment in the Colloquium or other individual courses may be possible subject to instructor approval.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Duration: 15 credits
