Dear colleagues,

the Venice Centre for Digital and Public Humanities (VeDPH) is pleased 
to announce the "Venice Summer School in Digital and Public Humanities 
2024", from 8 to 12 July.


# Purpose of the School

The Venice Summer School in Digital and Public Humanities provides 
advanced and in-depth training in theories, technologies and methods 
applied to historical monuments, artefacts and texts. Focussing on 
cultural, archaeological, historical, literary, and artistic materials 
from Venetian sites and cultural heritage institutions, participants 
will engage in debates about digital cultural heritage and public 
humanities while enhancing their competences and skills in digitising 
materials and sources and in modelling, analysing and visualising 
multimedia humanities data.


# Contents and schedule

The Summer School takes place at historical sites and cultural venues 
across the city of Venice and its surroundings. Each day is dedicated to 
a specific academic field: archaeology, history, art history and textual 
scholarship. Teaching formats include lectures, hands-on workshops, 
guided tours and experimental performances. Units are planned and 
delivered by local experts and invited specialists. All classes will be 
taught in English. The programme includes “Meet the Expert” sessions for 
discussing the participants’ individual research projects with domain 
experts.


# Eligibility and admission criteria

The Summer  School warmly welcomes PhD students, postdocs and 
practitioners from the private, public, and non-governmental sectors. 
Applicants must hold at least a Master’s degree or equivalent at the 
time of application. Precedence will be given to those candidates whose

benefit from the Digital and Public Humanities methods that they will 
learn during the summer school. A fair balance among genders and among 
disciplinary backgrounds will be preserved.
