Dr Kawtar Najib

Lecturer in Human Geography, Social & Spatial Inequalities

Can you tell us a bit about your career?

I am a Lecturer in Human Geography and studied Geography as an undergraduate. I chose this subject as I had always been inspired to tackle social and spatial inequalities. Prior to my degree, I had studied hard sciences, such as Physics and Chemistry.

Do you have any areas of expertise?

I have worked mainly in academic positions and particularly enjoy conducting research and having an impact. My area of expertise is Islamophobia and its spatialization, having written a book on it.

Do you have any advice to share?

My advice for anyone studying or working in the field of STEMM is to be authentic, also that no one will stop you from working.
