SUMMARY:IIT Delhi DHWS2 (2026): Geo-Spatial and Network Analysis
DESCRIPTION:The second Digital Humanities Winter School (DHWS2) was organised by the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences\, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi) and held from 12–17 January 2026 at the IIT Delhi campus. Building on the inaugural DHWS held in 2025\, this edition focused on spatial and network approaches\, particularly mapping\, connecting and visualising humanities data to uncover relationships across places\, people and texts. DHWS 2026 was supported by Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) and Savex Technologies. \nThe programme combined a pre-Winter School online bootcamp in Python and R with hands-on training in Spatial Humanities\, GIS\, computational text analysis\, network analysis\, AI and machine learning. Participants worked with tools and platforms including Recogito\, QGIS\, qgis2web\, OpenStreetMap\, GeoNames\, Wikidata\, Google Colab and JupyterHub. The faculty included David Joseph Wrisley (New York University Abu Dhabi\, UAE)\, Dr. Arjun Ghosh (IIT Delhi\, India)\, Dr. Sudeep Narayan Banerjee (IIT Delhi\, India)\, Dr. Rajarshi Dasgupta (IIT Delhi\, India) and Dr. Vinayak Dasgupta (Shiv Nadar University\, India). The Winter School also moved beyond conventional classroom instruction. Participants visited the Humayun’s Tomb Museum and undertook collaborative activities connecting material\, spatial and digital forms of knowledge. The programme concluded with participant presentations and a valedictory session\, including a collaborative cross-stitch map of India marking the places from which participants had travelled to attend the Winter School. \nFor more information\, visit the official webpage of DHWS 2026 here.

SUMMARY:IIT Delhi DHWS1 (2025): Computational Analysis of Texts
DESCRIPTION:The Digital Humanities Winter School (DHWS) 2025\, held between 17-22 February 2025\, was an initiative of the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences\, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi)\, designed to provide humanities and social-science scholars with an accessible introduction to computational methods and digital scholarship. The inaugural edition was held from 17–22 February 2025 at the IIT Delhi campus and focused particularly on the computational analysis of texts\, including text mining\, sentiment analysis\, topic modelling\, data visualisation\, data acquisition\, cleaning and wrangling. \nThe Winter School combined an online Python Bootcamp with six days of in-person workshops\, lectures and discussions. Geoffrey Rockwell (University of Alberta\, Canada) and Dr. Shanmugapriya T (IIT (ISM) Dhanbad) led sessions on computational text analysis\, while other sessions covered data science and libraries\, digital art and data aggregation\, OpenRefine\, and OCR technologies for Indian-language scripts. Faculty also included Dr. Arjun Ghosh\, Sanil V.\, Naveen Thayyil and Dr. Vinayak Dasgupta from IIT Delhi\, Jajwalya Karajgikar from the University of Pennsylvania\, and Rohan Chauhan from the University of Delhi \nThe Winter School received more than 550 applications\, with a cohort of 25 participants representing different disciplines\, academic levels\, Indian states and languages. It concluded with participant presentations and a roundtable on “Digital Humanities@India: Opportunity and Challenges in the Time of AI”\, led by Santanu Chaudhury. The programme also marked World Mother Language Day\, foregrounding computational approaches to Indian-language texts and the use of IIT Delhi’s Lipikar OCR technology. \nDetailed information about DHWS 2025 can be found here.
