Duke’s History Ph.D. fuses meticulous archival research with computational text mining and immersive storytelling. Doctoral historians digitize parchment charters with multispectral imaging, scrape shipping logs to map empire trade, and produce VR exhibits of civil-rights sit-ins. Required public-history labs turn dissertations into K–12 curricula, podcast series, and museum installations.
