This coming 19 January through 5 February 2021, Indiana University – Bloomington will offer a 3-week, 1 credit introduction to digital epigraphy, to be taught by Hilo Sugita, a former MA student of ours and now a Ph.D. student in Egyptology at Harvard. The course will be offered entirely online and may be taken synchronously or asynchronously.
It is open to both undergraduate and graduate students. Ms. Sugita is highly proficient at digital epigraphy and this promises to be a great course!
Non-Indiana University students need to first apply for admission as non-degree students. Undergraduates can apply at <https://nondegree.indiana.edu/> and, once admitted, should register for SGIS-S 300 (section 31261). Graduate students can apply at <https://graduate.indiana.edu/admissions/non-degree.html >, and should register for NELC-E695 (section 31262).
Note: International students who are interested should begin the application process as soon as possible. No visa is required to take an on-line course, but there are still some extra procedures that are required for international admissions.
