I joined the School of Education at Glasgow as a Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) from Durham University (2017-20). I have also held a Lord Kelvin Adam Smith Research Fellowship at Glasgow (2012-16), a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Research Fellowship at the Centre for Educational Sociology at Edinburgh (2008-10), and a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities at Edinburgh (2006-07). I have worked as an Assistant Professor in Social and Political Geography at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków where I have received my PhD.
I have an interdisciplinary background in geography (MPhil), sociology (MPhil) and management and public policy (PhD). My current research focuses on international migration and education.
I have been principal investigator and co-investigator on a number of projects such as the AHRC Global Challenges (2018-19) Building intercultural pedagogy for higher education in conditions of conflict and protracted crises (co-I); ESRC (2016-19) Identity, citizenship and belonging of migrant youth in the UK (co-I); ESRC IAA (2016-17) Race equality and Scottish school education (co-PI): the British Academy (2014-15) on international students mobility and capacity building in their home countries (PI) and EC Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellowship (2008-10) on migration, integration and education of Polish migrant families in Scotland.
I led design and delivery of the massive open online courses (MOOCs) supported by EC Erasmus+ funding:
2020 Interpreting for Refugees: Contexts, Practices and Ethics
2018 Working Supportively with Refugees: Principles, Skills and Perspectives
Research interests
I am interested in the following areas of research and teaching:
- Race, place, gender and disadvantage in education and labour market
- International student and graduate mobility
- Migrant children, youths, family perspectives
- Identity, home and belonging
- Minority languages and cultures, regionalism
- Transnational and comparative perspectives
I welcome enquiries about supervision from students who want to do a doctoral project in any area of my research interests and who are keen to use qualitative and mixed research methods.
