Teaching Interests
I am prepared to teach courses
at any level in the specializations mentioned above. I am also prepared to teach courses in
anthropological research and writing. I
have taught anthropology courses at all levels from Introduction to Anthropology to advanced doctoral courses, and I am
a prolific trainer of PhDs, averaging, as the Primary Advisor, two completed doctorates per three years since 2000. I have also mentored postdoctoral researchers
as part of larger research teams in both Ireland and Africa. Finally, I have extensive experience in
presenting anthropological concepts to non-anthropologists, whether on outreach
courses to non-traditional students, to Faculty of Science students, or to
medical students in both Europe and North America.
