An important feature of the Digital Studies Graduate Certificate Program is its multi-disciplinary approach, which allows our certificate to be wide-ranging and flexible to accommodate student interests across the field. Courses are regularly approved and included from a range of disciplines, departments, and schools, including American Culture, Communication, Comparative Literature, English, History, Psychology, Screen Arts and Cultures, Sociology, School of Information, Women's Studies, and more.The Graduate Committee reviews courses every year to include a variety of offerings, and students may petition the committee to include courses not already under consideration.
