Introduction

Most of my teaching is focused on advanced undergraduate and graduate-level geophysics and tectonics courses but I also teach an introductory geology course to non-majors. I believe that a wide breadth of knowledge, strong quantitative skills, and field experiences are important for success in the modern field of Earth Sciences. I work to ensure that my students develop these skills in the classroom, the field, and in their research.

Courses

The course I regularly teach are:
GLG 101 - Physical Geology
GLG 440C - Field Camp                                        
GLG 470 - Physics and Chemistry of the Earth   
GLG 460/560 - Applied Geophysics
GLG 565 - Solid Earth Geophysics
GLG 698 - Seminars
