The bulk of my teaching is located in the areas of International Relations, foreign policy, Security Studies, and European integration. I also teach and lecture on research methods and methodology.
I offer a didactically fine-tuned, safe, and respectful learning environment that uses a large variety of teaching methods. In my classrooms, I value curiosity and engagement, preparation, and open dialogue.
Additionally, I think that international exchange is tremendously important to get to know other perspectives. Therefore, I am happy to serve as departmental Erasmus Coordinator to enable my students to go abroad and to welcome foreign students at my university.
