Digital Humanities Lab

The UWF Digital Humanities Lab offers UWF scholars, faculty and staff the resources to develop stories for digital platforms.


Craft Your DH Story.  

Founded in 2017, the UWF DH Lab is an individual and small group workspace equipped with the digital tools and technologies for scholars working in the digital age. This space is available for UWF students, faculty and staff who are interested in using digital tools to conduct research, analyze information and present findings.
