Current teaching and administrative load:
a. 2 lecture courses per year, each 3 hours per week x 10 weeks, plus
preparation of notes, examples sheets and exam work connected with these
courses. The subject and titles vary from year to year, but typically,
one second or third year undergraduate course in Geometry or Algebra or
Algebraic Geometry and one M.Sc. (Master of Science) graduate course in
Algebraic Geometry.
b. Tutorial obligations towards approx 24 undergraduate and 7 graduate
students.
