Social Researcher: undertaking social research in a community setting for policy evaluation and/or policymaking. The project was proposed to develop research issues among minority ethnic groups in general and refugees and asylum seekers communities in particular. I Worked as a part of survey team to develop research proposals to be contracted to the organisation, to carry out the research design, the design of data collection techniques, and to undertake the field work and other related activities in the course of collecting, organising, and analysing the collected data.
As part of my post as a teaching assistant and later on as a lecturer at the department of economics, University of Khartoum, I took different responsibilities, which included, teaching, research and teaching related administrative work. The teaching part of the teaching assistantship position included small groups tutoring, holding of supplementary classes on some of the subjects, namely micro and macro economics and mathematical economics, and helping and directing students while writing up their different assignments. As a lecturer I was assigned a full teaching and research workload. I taught microeconomics and mathematical economics for the first to third year students, and supervised a number of students while they were writing up their final year dissertations. The administrative part of the post involved participation in departmental staff committee meetings, which I was its secretary in 1999, and taking part in different administrative work during examinations and results preparation. I headed a number of result preparation teams at the faculty level. I also took part as a secretary for a departmental committee, which was set up to initiate proposals of introducing intermediate diploma programmes to be considered as part of the department teaching programme. The committees in which I was involved undertook their different tasks and responsibilities on a teamwork basis, which required continuous cooperation between the members of the team.
