Teaching
I currently teach a range of units from 1st year undegrad, through to Masters level, and run workshops for PhD students. My units span foundational units on human-centred design and research practice through to entrepreneurial new venture creation. I also direct the postgraduate masters programmes in the Centre for Innovation and Entrpreneurship.
For many years I have also supported colleagues from all disciplines in how to embed key enterprise and employability skills in their curriculum.
