teaching

At Creighton University I regularly teach the lower-level courses Philosophical Ideas and Philosophical Ethics. Both are core curriculum requirements for all students regardless of major. I also regularly teach upper-level courses in areas that align with my research, such as Philosophy of Language, Epistemology, and Phenomenology. Recently, I have begun teaching a course on Philosophical Concepts in Medicine for Creighton’s Medical School students. A statement of teaching philosophy is available here, and below is a complete list of the different courses I have previously taught at Creighton and elsewhere (more detailed information is available on my CV).
