Personal Statement
Teaching Fellow in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics
I am Director of Teaching in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, and a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. Previously, I served as second year co-ordinator from 2017 to 2023, chaired the Department's Equality and Diversity Committee from 2019, and led our successful application for a Bronze Award in 2024. Some of the Strathclyde-led events I was involved in are:
- LMS Women in Mathematics Day, June 2021
- Retreat for Women in Applied Mathematics, January 2023
I am also a member of the Senior Fellows at Strathclye and the University's Learderhip in Teaching and Learning networks, as well as the SoTL Collarborative Wriring Groups. My pedagogical interests include the following areas:
- exploring deep and surface approahces to learning
- engaging students as partners in relation to feedback
- contextulalising the curriculum
- embedding Education for Sustainable Development
My mathematical research interests include:
- inverse semigroup theory
- formal language theory in algebra
- combinatorial optimisation problems related to edge covering of graphs with restricted length Eulerian circuits
- word-representable graphs
