Episode Details

UCLA just launched the nation’s first bachelor’s degree in Digital Humanities—blending history, literature, and tech like coding and AI to tackle how technology reshapes culture. With 23 faculty from humanities and data science, the program aims to teach students not just to use tools, but to understand and ethically wield them. Already popular as a minor, it’s targeting 40–100 majors this year, offering internships at places like the Wende Museum. Employers crave graduates who can code AND communicate—this major bridges that gap, reviving humanities relevance in a digital age.
