Master of Arts in Digital Studies

The Master of Arts in Digital Studies at the University of Chicago offers a one-year general M.A. or a two-year specialized M.A. with a thesis project. This program provides a strong foundation in computational methods, equipping students with coding skills alongside the research, writing, and critical thinking abilities developed through a humanities education. It is designed for students with backgrounds in humanities or arts, but those from scientific fields, including computer science, are also encouraged to apply. Graduates are prepared for careers in software development, marketing, communications, technical writing, or for further doctoral studies and academic support roles in digital humanities.
