I have also supervised visiting PhD students for one year at Bristol and at Warwick

Other Teaching

My Visiting Professorship at ENS Cachan (see Appointments held (visiting academic posts above) involved my teaching an elective course to fourth year students (rough equivalent to English MA / MSc taught postgraduate course).

* ESRC funded students, who completed on time (in two cases with one-year extensions approved by the ESRC) + Both these research students were elderly, self-funded, part-time postgraduates; both had a dependent relative suffering from severe sickness and associated personal problems. With the university’s permission, both suspended studies for extended periods: this explains the length of time taken to complete their theses. 5

July 2003: invited expert at the Georg-August-University, Gottingen Postgraduate Summer School: ‘The Future of the European Social Model’. In 2002 and 2003, I was an invited speaker at ESRC postgraduate summer schools for new doctoral students.
