Teaching Experience

Associate Professor of Solid Geophysics, 10/2013 – now : Institute of Geophysics and Geomatics, China University of Geosciences (Wuhan)

• The Physics of the Earth’s Interior (Spring, 2014-2016): Introduction to methods used to visualize and understand the mechanical structure, and dynamics of the solid-earth system. The covered topics include seismology, gravity, magnetism, heat flow, geochronology, and geodesy.

• Seismology (Spring, 2014-2016): Undergraduate-level course in understanding the Earth’s interior and earthquake via seismic waves.

• Evolution of Modern Seismology  (Spring, 2014-2015): Introduction to evolution of modern seismology and its effect on human society. The course shows how the seismology helps us to understand solid earth as well.

Teaching Assistant, 09/2005-01/2009: Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, National Chung Cheng University; 09/2006-01/2007: Department of Geosciences, National Taiwan University (for Observational Seismology)

• Inverse Theory (Fall, 2007-2008): Introduction to methods used in analyzing geophysical data. The course was designed to graduate students who have a basic background in science and mathematics.

• Observational Seismology (Spring, 2006-2008): A course designed to involve graduate students into seismological research. The topics included seismometers and seismic networks, basic and advanced seismic data processing tools, travel time calculations, etc.

• Introduction to Geophysics (Fall, 2004-2008): Undergraduate-level course in introduction to the history, shape, mechanical structure and dynamics of the solid-earth system. The covered topics include basic seismology, gravity, magnetism, heat flow and geodesy.

• Gravity and Magnetic Prospecting (Spring, 2006-2008): Undergraduate-level course in understanding field methods used in gravity and magnetic studies via operating instruments.

Certificate for participation in “Teaching Assistant Training”, Fall 2007: National Chung Cheng University
