För närvarande, vid SLU driver jag doktorandkursen: Introductory course for PhD-students samt den internationella kandidatkursen: Urban landskapsdesign 15hp. Jag har tidigare drivit och utvecklat kurser som på olika sätt berör samspelet mellan analys, metod-och konceptutveckling genom studier av designteori, via skissarbete och slutligt förslag till utformning.
