Teaching and Academic Roles

At Lucy Cavendish College, University of Cambridge, I serve as one of the Directors of Studies in Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, helping oversee the academic programme in the subject within the College.

I also contribute as a Tutor, supporting the wider academic and collegiate landscape through student guidance, academic engagement, and broader contribution to College life.

A significant part of my teaching is delivered through Cambridge-style supervisions, with a particular focus on undergraduate Chemical Engineering teaching and support.

Teaching and Supervision

Over the past few years, I have supported undergraduate learning across core chemical engineering subjects through small-group supervisions, academic guidance, and structured problem-solving support. This has included:

  • Process Calculations
  • Reaction Engineering
  • Heat and Mass Transfer
  • Process Thermodynamics
  • Fluid Mechanics

My teaching approach places emphasis on conceptual clarity, quantitative reasoning, and the development of independent problem-solving habits.

Supervision and Mentoring

I am interested in supervision and mentoring that combine:

  • strong disciplinary foundations
  • quantitative and computational thinking
  • scientific clarity
  • problem-solving ability
  • intellectual independence

My broader educational interests include the training of students and early-career researchers in chemical engineering, materials science, data-driven modelling, and interdisciplinary scientific research.

In addition to undergraduate teaching, I also contribute to research and project mentoring where relevant at undergraduate, Master’s, and doctoral level.

Areas of Interest

I am particularly interested in supervising or mentoring work connected to:

  • porous materials and MOFs
  • adsorption and separation science
  • catalysis
  • AI and data-driven chemistry
  • process modelling
  • structure–property relationships
  • interpretable machine learning for scientific applications
