The University of Bologna has a long tradition in Digital Humanities, both at the level of research and teaching. In this article, we want to introduce some experiences in developing new educational models based on the idea of transversal learning, collaborative approaches and projects-oriented outputs, together with the definition of research fields within this vast domain, accompanied by practical examples. The creation of an international master's degree (DHDK), a PhD (CHeDE) and a research centre (/DH.arc) are the results of refining our notion of Digital Humanities in a new bidirectional way: to reflect on computational methodologies and models in the cultural sphere and to suggest a cultural approach to Informatics.
