ProfessorEamonn Delahunt

Professor Delahunt's teaching philosophy is based on a "Research-led Learning and Teaching" approach to University teaching and learning. This philosophy/approach incorporates both Research-led Teaching and Inquiry-based Learning. Through this approach Eamonn shares his own research with students as well as endeavouring to actively engage students in undertaking disciplinary specific research.

Professor Delahunt previously held the position of programme coordinator of the UCD BSc Health & Performance Science (2020 - 2023, 2008 - 2015). His dedication to the role of programme coordinator has seen the BSc Health & Performance Science become a national leading programme in the area of sports and exercise science as evidence by the 2015 CAO figures. His innovation and adoption of new approaches to teaching and learning is evidenced by the receipt of a Module Innovation Support grant (2009), NDLR LIP grant, a College Teaching award (2012), a Fellowship in Teaching and Academic Development (2014), and a Teaching Excellence Award (2017).
