About the IC for Digitality and Digital Methods Campus Mitte
(IC D2MCM)
The main goal of the IC D2MCM is to facilitate the exchange between the departments represented at Campus Mitte (CM) in the areas of digitality and digital methods (D2M), to develop shared priorities and corresponding infrastructures in order to leverage the existing potential and to enable excellent research in these areas (start funding period July 2023). To achieve this, the IC D2MCM focuses on the specific needs of researchers and their projects, providing them with agile and innovative infrastructure support in a sustainable manner. This approach aims to create ground-breaking knowledge about digitality and digital methods, making it a focal point at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. The following institutions are involved in the IC D2MCM by submitting applications and supporting the member faculties (2022):
- Faculty of Language, Literature and Humanities, Roland Meyer and Dean Stefan Kipf
- Faculty of Arts and Humanities, Torsten Hiltmann and Dean Thomas Sandkühler
- Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, Sonja Greven and Dean Daniel Klapper
- Faculty of Law, Anneke Petzsche and Vice Dean Martin Heger
- Faculty of Theology, Notger Slenczka and Dean Markus Witte
- Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Agnes Villwock and Vice Dean Michael Wahl
- Berlin Institute for Islamic Theology, Mohammmad Gharaibeh
We closely cooperate with the Computer- and Media Center (CMS) and the University Library (UB) of HU Berlin.
