Interdisciplinary School of Tools and Methods (EIOM)

I love sharing with and learning from students. I teach research methods and thematic courses to graduate students from various disciplines.

Building on my work experience as a civil servant, I always aim to strike a balance between theoretical and practical content to ensure students develop the tools to apply their knowledge to their research and future jobs.

Courses and workshops taught

ETI-7030 "Introduction to Interdisciplinary Research: Tackling International Issues"

(Title in french: Initiation à la recherche interdisciplinaire: Aborder les enjeux internationaux" )


I developed a graduate course for master students of the Graduate School of International Studies. The course aims to help students develop their interdisciplinary master's research project. It focuses on theoretical and practical aspects of interdisciplinary and empirical research. In addition, it highlights the similarities between interdisciplinary research and skills useful to conduct analysis as a practitioner.  Syllabus in French here

Climate Change, Policy, and the Law 

I co-teach a workshop at the 22nd Swiss Climate Summer School 2024. The Summer School brings together Ph.D students and postdoctoral researchers from different institutions. The workshop focuses on discovering how the findings of climate science are negotiated, incorporated, and implemented through political science, legal theory, and concrete climate policies and laws.

Free Trade Agreements

(Title in french: “Les accords de libre-échange”)

I presented a workshop on the legal principles of free trade agreements to graduate students participating in Laval University's Trade Missions. These graduate students needed a practical workshop to understand the legal framework provided in free trade agreements and the opportunity these agreements offer to the business they represented for the trade mission.
