Personal profile
Biography
I joined the Department as Lecturer in Politics in 1996 and am now a Reader in Politics. I was previously a Politics Lecturer at the University of Paisley, I have a BA and PhD in Politics from the University of Strathclyde.
Research Interests:
My research interests span the areas of elections and political parties, political participation, and movement politics. With ESRC funding, and as Principal Investigator, I am currently researching the surge in party membership amongst pro-independence parties following the 2014 referendum on Scottish independence. Co-investigators are Professor James Mitchell (Edinburgh) and Dr Rob Johns (Essex).
Teaching Responsibilities:
I am convenor of our first year course PI1018 Introduction to Politics and International Relations: Democracy and Governance. I contribute to PI2009, Ideas and Ideologies in Politics and International Relations and the inter-disciplinary Sixth Centrury course SX1011 Sustainability: Challenges and Opportunity. I am convenor of the honours course PI3562 Political Parties in Britain. At postgraduate level, I coordinate the MRes in Political Research programme and convene the course on Research Design.
I supervise dissertations on elections, political behaviour, political parties, green politics and movement politics.
