- Center for Digital Studies
The Center for Digital Studies was established in 2014 as the central hub for digital humanities research and teaching at Pitt-Greensburg. Our representative faculty members are committed to bringing our academic strengths in critical analysis, communication, rhetoric, aesthetics, and historical research to our understanding of computation and digital media, even as we use such tools to enhance the study of human culture.
In practice, the CDS realizes its goals by supporting the study of contemporary subjects, from video games and social media to artificial intelligence. At the same time, the Center aids students and faculty in acquiring digital literacy skills, including text analysis, coding, data visualization, network modeling, digital mapping, web development, and digital storytelling (including audio/video editing, production, and podcasting).
