Teaching

I have extensive teaching experience from the University of Vienna, Linnaeus University, and Södertörn University. My primary focus areas include the politics and law of the European Union, public policy, and qualitative research methods. I have taught across all levels of higher education, including bachelor’s, master’s, and PhD programmes.

 

 

In addition, I have taken on responsibilities for overseeing education at the master’s and PhD levels. I also supervise PhD theses and am deeply committed to sharing my expertise and supporting students in their academic development.
