As a student, I have found a course via the DH Course Registry, which is of great interest/relevance to me. How can I attend it? What do I have to do next?
This depends from university to university and the kind of agreements among them. There are several options:
a) go to your university's student exchange office and see if they can advise you how to proceed;
b) contact the lecturer of the course you are interested in and ask for more information. Click on the link specified at the course details, “Source Url”. This leads to the corresponding page at the institution website.
Please note that the courses listed in the registry are only for information and easy discovery. We do not facilitate student exchange between universities.
There are no courses displayed in my country. Why is that the case? What needs to be done to display DH courses taught in my country?
If there are no courses displayed within a country, it means that there was no course data entered for the respective country. Are you teaching Digital Humanities courses in a country with no data displayed? Click the link below to create an account and enter the first courses for your country!
