Employment History
| 09/2004 - | Oxford Brookes University, Department of Architecture |
| Lecturer in Technology | |
| 10/2003 - 07/2004 | Cambridge University Engineering Department |
| Postdoctoral Research Associate. Research into teaching and learning methods in engineering and technology, with a particular focus on Cambridge University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Specific areas of investigation included the control that students have over their studies, and the ways in which students could be motivated and inspired to continue in engineering after the end of their degree course. Also investigated possible eLearning technologies that could be deployed. | |
| 10/2001 - 06/2003 | RolaTube Technology Limited |
| Research and Development Manager. Management of research relationship between RolaTube and Cambridge University. Development of considerable expertise in the design and optimisation of composite layups. Research into composite layups with properties approximating isotropic materials (in 2D). Development of a software package for the design of bi-stable, and other, composite layups. | |
| 04/2001 - 07/2001; 07/2003 - 09/2003 | Freelance typesetting |
