Research Centre for Digital Humanities Integration (C4DHI)

Leader: Jiří Kocián

Center for Digital Humanities Integration (C4DHI) pursues the mission of ushering current realities of indispensability of the “digital” dimension of research and education in area studies and modern history at IMS. Through close collaboration with partner research institutions specialized in the technological aspects of DH applications, it seeds and nurtures transdisciplinary methodological integration in four key pillar activities:

1)    internal  DH  skill  and  capacity  building

2)  external DH expertise influx and networking

3)    direct DH application in research and publishing

4)  integration of DH into the study curriculum.
