Teaching and Supervision
Teaching Statement
I have extensive experience teaching undergraduate distance and face-to-face courses in entrepreneurship, small business management, business model innovation, international business, new venture development, corporate strategy and organisational behaviour. I currently teach at undergraduate level into the international business programme, as well as small business management, and also deliver the EMBA strategy course. I value reflection and encouraging students to question sources of information and develop critical thinking skills. Group work and collaboration are also important features of my teaching.
Graduate Supervision Statement
I value the opportunity to supervise students and I view this unique relationship as a partnership where I guide the student through the research journey. I have two overarching interests: one is in the social contribution of small and medium enterprises, and the other is to do with the gender disparity in the information technology sector. I am open to supervise a range of topics within those two overarching interests. As well as my research experience, I bring to the supervision a focus on qualitative methods, that draws on historical and contextual approaches.
Dr Tanya Jurado is available for Masters and Doctorial supervision.
