Dr Tara Baldacchino

I joined the University of Sheffield in September 2006 on the MSc Advanced Control within was was then Automatic Control and Systems Engineering (ACSE) Department. In September 2007 I stayed in the department, this time as a PhD student focusing on statistical modelling. After a brief hiatus from academic between 2011 and 2012, I joined the University of Sheffield as a post-doctoral researcher holding a number of positions within ACSE and Mechanical Engineering Department. I then became a University Teacher in 2016 within ACSE.

My teaching interests focus on project based learning with a strong emphasis on both technical and professional skills. I specalise in embedding employability, and inclusivity (including inclusive engineering design) within my teaching content.

I currently teach programming with application to embedded systems, and systems engineering.
