I have been teaching for the last six years in both PG & UG Honours in Geology. I teach Geophysics, Engineering Geology, and Mineralogy at UG and PG levels. These contain both theory and laboratory-based coursework. I was an international trainer for the Science Research Workshop Module by the Dhaka University Research Society (DURS), Dhaka, Bangladesh, from September 3, 2022, to November 3, 2022.
