I started teaching in the autumn of 2003. while still at the University of Aarhus, I gave lectures on the post-recombination Universe and galaxy formation. In the spring of 2004 i gave lectures in in introductory cosmology (A4) following Barbara Ryden's book "Introduction to Cosmology". Some good links in this connection are J.P. Leahy's cosmology page, Relativity on the web, The cosmology FAQ.


At the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen I have taught "Introduction to Cosmology" with Jens Hjorth (called astro 1 at the time), contributed to a course on advanced cosmology, an introductory course on Galaxies together with Per Kjaergaard, and Jens Knude (astro 2). I have taught a master course on galaxy formation and chemical evolution (for which I received the Niels Bohr Institute teachign award). I teach an introductory course (Fundamentals of Astrophysics, with Uffe G. Jørgensen and Troels Haughbølle), a course on galaxy formation and galactic dynamics (with Steen Hansen) and a course on observational astrophysics, where we use the Nordic Optical Telescope. I have also been coordinator for the study-reform of the astro courses in connection with the "fremdriftsreform" in 2014.

I previously has been or currently am supervisor or co-supervisor for
