Last updated on August 2025

During my PhD program, I have been actively involved in teaching and mentoring. At this day, I gave a total of 96h of teaching lessons. Below is a summary of my teaching activities:

Teaching Activities

Master’s Level Courses

• Lecture Course: Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
  Target Audience: Second-year Master’s students in Planetology and Space Exploration, Paris-Saclay University.
  Description: This course introduces students to the principles and applications of GIS in planetary sciences. It is followed by a tutorial about GIS using QuantumGIS. I have delivered this course every year from 2022 to 2024.

• Tutorial Series: Remote Sensing of Planetary Surfaces
  Target Audience: First-year Master’s students in Planetology and Space Exploration, Paris-Saclay University.
  Description: This series of 8 tutorials covers the fundamentals of remote sensing techniques and their application to planetary surface analysis. I have delivered these tutorials from 2022 to 2024.

Mentoring Activities

Undergraduate Research Supervision

• March - May 2024: Co-supervised four second-year undergraduate students pursuing a dual degree in Mathematics, Physics, and Engineering Science, Paris-Saclay University.
