Biography

Dr. Eugene J. Farrell (@DoctorDune) is a fulltime, permanent Lecturer in the Discipline of Geography in the College of Arts, Social Sciences, & Celtic Studies in National University Ireland Galway. He joined the University in August 2012. He is the instructor for physical geography modules in the BA, BSc (undergraduate) and MSc (postgraduate) degree programmes. He is Director of the taught MSc programme ‘Coastal and Marine Environments: physical processes, policy’.

Dr. Farrell completed the Earth Science Bachelor of Science (BSc hons.) programme at University College Cork (1991-1995) and the Masters of Science (MS) programme in Geography during his tenure at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, USA (1995-1998). Following these he worked in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in the California real estate industry for four years (1998-2002) mapping natural and environmental hazards. He moved to Italy in 2003 to work at the Università degli Studi di Firenze on coastal research and management projects along the Tuscany coastline. He completed the doctoral programme (PhD) in Geography at Texas A&M University, USA (2006-2012). During this time period he was a National Science Foundation (NSF) fellow and visiting scholar at James Cook University, Queensland, Australia.  In January 2012 he was appointed Postdoctoral Associate at the Institute of Marine and Coastal Science, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey (USA).  

Dr. Farrell was elected as Ireland's nominee for the European Marine Board (EMB) Working Group on ‘Coastal Resilience’. The EMB is the leading European think tank in marine science policy focused on advancing marine research and bridging the gap between science and policy. The Working Group is tasked with writing a position paper during 2021 to provide an overview of the current state of the art in methods and tools for coastal resilience and identify knowledge gaps for future challenges. The research will inform EU policy and promote science-based decision making in coastal conservation, restoration, habitat and biodiversity management.
