About Dr Victoria Rafferty
With an academic background in research methods and applied research, I teach research methods and have an interest in working with students to develop their own research interests and research approach.
Having also worked for many years in learning development, I'm keen to support students as they navigate their learning journey and make sense of not only the subject content, but also the landscape of higher education.
