The Heidelberg Research Architecture
Under the umbrella of the Heidelberg Research Architecture (HRA), IT scientists, software developers, database architects, academically trained professionals in e-learning as well as IT support staff collaborate with researchers and students at the Cluster to form an integrated digital humanities environment for interdisciplinary and internationally distributed studies of transcultural dynamics.
