Digital Humanities at NKUA

Digital Humanities at NKUA
12.05.2006 - 03.16

The Research Institute for the Digital Humanities and the Joint MSc Programme in Digital Humanities of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens are organising an online workshop entitled “Humanities and Technology: A Creative Synergy” on Friday, 15 May 2026, from 09:00 to 17:00, via Webex.

The workshop highlights the growing dialogue between the humanities and contemporary digital technologies, addressing both the theoretical and practical dimensions of the field. The programme brings together scholars and specialists working on Digital Humanities, classical studies and digitality, historical geography, 3D reconstruction technologies, accessibility to cultural heritage, data analytics, interactive digital storytelling, digital philology, artificial intelligence, LLMs, GIS, and emerging methodological shifts in research and education.

The event aims to demonstrate how technological innovation can enrich, extend, and transform humanities research without replacing its critical, interpretative, and historical foundations. Rather than treating technology as an external tool, the workshop approaches it as a creative partner in the production, analysis, preservation, and communication of cultural knowledge.

The workshop is open to the public.

University of Athens

The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, which was inaugurated on May 3, 1837, was initially housed in a renovated Ottoman building on the northeastern side of the Acropolis. This building has since been restored and now functions as the University Museum. Originally named the "Othonian University," after Otto, the first king of Greece, it consisted of four academic departments and 52 students. As the first university of the newly established Greek state, as well as of the broader Balkan and Mediterranean region, it assumed an important socio-historical role, which was pivotal in the development of specific forms of knowledge and culture within the country.
