In his 11+ years with TSSG he has contributed to and managed a number of research projects funded by SFI, HEA, EI, the IRC and the EU; in recent years he acted as TSSG’s Head of Postgraduate Studies and latterly as it’s Director of Research. During this time he supervised 5 PhD students and 3 MSc by Research students to completion; currently he supervises or co-supervisors 8 PhD students and 2 MSc by Research students, the majority of whom will complete their work during 2015. In TSSG he mentored a number of new PhD/MSc supervisors and has acted as internal/external examiner for PhD and MSc by Research students in WIT, TCD, CIT, AIT and Ghent University. During 2012 he spent a summer as a visiting researcher in KTH – Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, and in the first half of 2014 he was a visiting researcher in EMC Research Europe in Cork.
