Admission Requirements

Work in the digital humanities and heritage today is characterised by its transdisciplinary nature. Professionals from all sorts of backgrounds (humanities, social sciences, engineering) work together on wide-ranging cultural projects. This Master’s degree has therefore been designed to offer solutions to the needs of a wide range of students with very different previous training. We believe that we need to open the doors to this course to students from different branches of knowledge and different specific training needs, but who coincide on a common theme: the use of technology for information contained in cultural data.
Within this broad access graduates or equivalent in the following fields are encouraged to apply:

  • Humanities, History, Archaeology, Philosophy, Arts, Philology. These students will be required to take bridging courses.
  • Social sciences or equivalent studies, or Experimental science, Engineering, Architecture, or equivalent. These students will be required to take bridging courses.
All students must be able to accredit office computer skills at user level.
