My teaching portfolio covers a wide range of political science courses for BA and MA students as well as summer schools and workshops for PhD students, senior researchers, and faculty members. I offer substantive courses on international relations, foreign policy, conflict studies, and public policy. I am also teaching empirical research methods, especially Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) in the R software environment.
