Digital Humanities Summer Fellowships
The Simpson Center offers annual summer fellowships for faculty and graduate students to pursue research projects that use digital technologies in innovative and intensive ways and/or explore the historical, social, aesthetic, and cross-cultural implications of digital cultures. The program has three primary goals:
- To animate knowledge—using rich media, dynamic databases, and visualization tools
- To circulate knowledge—among diverse publics
- To understand digital culture—historically, theoretically, aesthetically, and generatively
The Simpson Center gratefully acknowledges the support of a National Endowment for the Humanities Challenge Grant and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation as well as many donors to the endowment which is underwriting these fellowships.

Crowd-sourcing Constitutional Reform
Efforts to build more open and inclusive models of democracy have led to the emergence of constitutional processes that have expanded opportunities for people’s participation in dialogue and decision-making about their countries’ futures in both social media and face-to-face forums. The aim of the project is to create an archive that preserves and makes digitally accessible materials related to these crowd-sourced constitutional reform processes around the world.
