This year, a new graduate student element is being added to the
Digital Humanities Summer Institute at the University of Victoria. A
number of graduate students attending the Institute will be
participating in a colloquium entitled "Next Wave: New Researchers and
the Future of the Digital Humanities". There will be presentations on
many aspects of graduate student research in the digital humanities,
such as electronic elements in the dissertation, the graduate
student's role in established research projects, tool application and
development, etc.

The colloquium will take place over four morning sessions (June 9-12)
from 8:30-9:30 in Harry Hickman 105. Each session will feature four
graduate student presentations demonstrating the incorporation of some
aspect of the digital humanities into their research. Each presentation will
be informal, 5-10 minutes in length, with time for Q&A at session's end.
Sessions are open to all DHSI attendees and interested members of the
public.
