Duke STEAM Challenge 2015-16: Digital Humanities

Excited to announce the new Duke STEAM Challenge, which is co-sponsored by the Office of Academic Affairs, the Digital Humanities Initiative at FHI, and Information Science + Information Studies, along with support from Innovation and Entrepreneurship, HASTAC at Duke and more. The STEAM Challenge is a competition for students to bring together STEM with Arts and Humanities to make a difference in the world. This year’s theme, Digital Humanities, reflects special attention to humanities data, broadly conceived, and to ways in which humanistic inquiry can enrich our understanding of the ethical and critical stakes of scientific interventions. Hoping to see a lot of great applicants. We are doing a few info sessions this December and then again in January, with a deadline for initial project proposals on February 1, 2016.
